More about Lora

19 years' experience
Female
LCSW

I offer adult individual therapy, specializing in working with the effects of trauma, rape, military sexual trauma, life stress, and transitions. My clinical work includes helping people connect with their authentic self to build inner resilience and self-awareness, reduce anxiety/depression, and improve relationships. Therapy is a collaborative process that allows one to be fully seen and deeply heard while growing empathy and understanding of self through examining past wounds, current stressors, and challenging themes that keep showing up unresolved.

My work utilizes a variety of modalities tailored to each client, with a strong focus on establishing a warm and nonjudgmental atmosphere. Therapy encourages the undoing of patterns and thus requires a safe place to learn and practice new ideas at a pace that feels right for you.

My approach is built on compassion and acceptance. It would be an honor to walk this path with clients as they develop self-worth, relationship stability, and trust.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
