About Lori

Lori Burns is a licensed mental health counselor with 26 years of experience who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and parenting challenges. She offers calm, steady support and practical ways to cope when daily life feels overwhelming. Clients who want clear conversation and thoughtful guidance often seek her out for work and wellbeing concerns and life transitions.

She focuses on each person's story and values. Lori listens for patterns in relationships, communication, and coping. Then she helps people try simple, realistic steps to feel more in control and more connected to others. Sessions emphasize problem-solving, emotional processing, and building routines that fit real life.

Her background includes long clinical experience in community settings and private practice across Indiana. That experience informs a flexible style that adjusts to what a person needs in the moment, whether that is learning new ways to manage anxiety or working through a loss.

Lori also addresses attachment concerns, caregiver stress, communication problems, divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose and midlife changes. She works with people facing process and sex addictions and supports women navigating specific pressures. Young adult issues and workplace concerns are part of her practice as well.

People who choose Lori can expect direct yet compassionate conversation, actionable strategies to try between sessions, and a focus on daily functioning and wellbeing. To begin, prospective clients follow the site steps to see if she might be a fit.

How evidence-based work fits into online therapy

Many of the techniques Lori uses are evidence-based therapeutic methods that help people change unhelpful patterns and feel better in day-to-day life. One approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real experience to reduce anxious thinking and improve mood. Another approach emphasizes strengthening relationships and communication so people can resolve conflicts and deepen connections. These methods are practical and aim to give clear steps people can try between sessions.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client review current difficulties, goals, and preferences, then pick or adapt methods that seem most helpful. That collaborative process can shift over time as needs change.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, save commute time, and allow check-ins during workday breaks. Different formats also let people choose what feels most manageable for them, whether they need a shorter check-in or a longer deep-dive session.
