How evidence-based approaches fit into online care
Lorie uses evidence-based therapy techniques that focus on clear steps and real-life improvements. One common approach she uses helps people learn emotional regulation skills and reduce reactivity; this is useful for anger, impulsivity, and ADHD-related challenges. Another approach emphasizes behavioral strategies and gradual exposure to reduce anxiety and panic symptoms, helping people regain confidence in daily routines.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to identify goals, tries methods that match those goals, and adjusts plans over time based on what is most helpful. The client and therapist make decisions together about pacing and techniques.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing more flexible scheduling. It can also make short check-ins or consistent weekly appointments simpler to maintain. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are available for scheduling.
