Lori Karman, LMHC, LPCC

Lori Karman is a licensed mental health counselor and licensed professional clinical counselor with 15 years of experience. She offers individual therapy for adults who are facing stress, anxiety, life transitions, parenting strains, or challenges with self-esteem and anger. Lori focuses on practical skills people can use right away to manage day-to-day struggles and regain a sense of control.

Her work centers on solution-focused strategies and skill building. Sessions aim to teach coping tools for anxiety, anger management, sleep troubles, and relationship communication. She also helps clients address ADHD-related difficulties, grief, career concerns, and adjustment to life changes such as aging or caregiving roles.

Lori uses several clinical approaches to shape her sessions. She blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with cognitive-behavioral techniques and attachment-informed perspectives to help clients clarify values, shift unhelpful thinking patterns, and strengthen close relationships. Client-centered listening guides the pace and focus of each meeting.

For people who want to include faith in their work, she offers Biblical encouragement as part of the therapeutic conversation. She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care questions, abandonment, blended family issues, body image, and codependency concerns.

Her aim is to create a focused and supportive space where clients learn skills, gain clarity, and move forward with confidence. People considering therapy are encouraged to use the Start Therapy process to match and schedule according to availability.

How therapy approaches shape online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It focuses on accepting difficult thoughts while committing to meaningful action, which can help with anxiety, avoidance, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches tools to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing ADHD-related challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods best match their goals and preferences. That could mean practicing behavioral skills one week and focusing on values or attachment concerns the next, depending on what is most useful.

Please confirm current session options before booking so you know how Lori is meeting with clients now. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, shorten travel time, and allow for clearer scheduling around work or caregiving. It also supports continuity of care when people face relocation or temporary changes in routine. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and CBT exercises to the format you choose, and sessions focus on practical tools you can use between meetings.
