She blends counseling and leadership coaching to help people manage stress, sharpen workplace skills, and face life changes.

Lora uses a mix of person-focused conversation and concrete techniques. She listens closely to what matters most and tailors sessions to the client's current needs.

Background and approach

Sessions are interactive and often include practical tools for communication, time management, and handling money-related stress. Existential ideas inform how she helps people think about life purpose and meaning during transitions. She also incorporates eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, often called EMDR, for trauma and intense memories.

Mindfulness practices are used to calm the body and improve attention in day-to-day life. Her style is described as warm and direct. She aims to create a space where clients can try new strategies, set work and life goals, and build resilience.

Coaching elements focus on leadership, performance, and breaking through barriers that limit results. Lora works with concerns such as anxiety, self-esteem, relationship strain, family of origin issues, and workplace problems. She helps veterans with military-related issues and people coping with major life transitions.

Sessions are practical, focused, and paced to match each person's goals.

How Lora's Approaches Work Online

Existential Therapy helps people consider meaning, values, and life direction during changes or stress. Online conversations can support decisions about career, life purpose, or big transitions by focusing on what matters most. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and priorities, giving space for honest conversation and practical problem solving tailored to each session.

EMDR, or eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, is a method used for processing distressing memories and trauma symptoms. When used online it involves guided procedures and focused attention to help reduce the intensity of painful memories and reactions. Lora will talk with each person to decide which approaches and tools feel like the best fit based on goals, needs, and preferences. That choice is collaborative and can change as work progresses.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions are useful for a full conversation and nonverbal cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text work well for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or shorter skill practice between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to continue work from different locations.
