Sheet 2
Evidence-based approaches and how they work online
Many of the techniques Lorie uses come from evidence-based therapeutic methods. Cognitive approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different ways of thinking to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Behavioral strategies break problems into small actions and practice new habits to address addictions, focus issues, and symptoms of trauma.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each client to decide which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying methods, reviewing what helped, and adjusting the plan as therapy progresses.
Specific session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when helpful, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to remote sessions so that sessions remain practical and focused on day-to-day change.
