Evidence-based approaches for online care

Many clients work with Lorie using structured, evidence-based techniques that teach practical skills. Cognitive-behavioral strategies focus on how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and then teach tools to shift unhelpful patterns; these methods help with anxiety, panic, and mood concerns. Skills-based emotion regulation work targets intense feelings and impulsivity by teaching steps for calming down and choosing different responses, which can be useful for anger and ADHD-related challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lorie collaborates with each person to decide which techniques match their goals, preferences, and daily life. Together they try methods, check what helps, and adjust the plan as needed so therapy stays practical and relevant.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care easier to fit into busy lives. These options allow for flexible scheduling, quicker check-ins between sessions, and the ability to continue work from home or elsewhere in Arizona. The mix of real-time conversation and messaging supports steady progress while keeping access simple.
