About Lori

Lori Fitch is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 24 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, grief, addiction, parenting strains, and other life changes. Lori also supports clients facing issues like low self-esteem, sleep problems, career pressures, and ADHD-related struggles.

She has worked across outpatient settings and in schools, bringing experience with crisis response and student support programs. Early in her career she worked with survivors and families affected by the September 11th attacks and has pursued ongoing work related to trauma and post-traumatic stress. Her school counseling role has involved creating mental health programs for students and resources for parents.

Lori’s approach draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside client-centered and cognitive behavioral methods. She integrates mindfulness and motivational interviewing tools when helpful. Sessions tend to include listening, reflection, and practical strategies clients can try between meetings.

In practice she aims to be direct and interactive, using plain language and sometimes humor to ease difficult conversations. She will talk through coping skills, communication techniques, and steps to manage mood and anxiety symptoms. Lori works with people at many life stages and adapts her methods to the issue at hand.

She offers services in English and accepts international clients. Fees vary with location and sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To get started, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.

How Lori’s approaches translate to online work

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and naming strong feelings and how they shape relationships and reactions. It is often used when patterns of emotion and attachment feel stuck or hard to change.

Client-Centered Therapy centers on a person’s experience and preferences. It involves reflective listening and collaboration so clients feel heard and can make their own choices about next steps.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at practical links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It often includes simple exercises to test unhelpful thinking and to build new coping skills.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Lori will talk with each client about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That conversation guides whether EFT, CBT, client-centered methods, or a mix will be used.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options when you book. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and offer alternatives when in-person meetings are difficult. Licensed professionals adapt pacing and tools so therapy can fit everyday life.
