About Lori
Lori Burns is an LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) practicing in Indiana with 26 years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and parenting challenges. Lori also addresses guilt and shame among other concerns.
Her style is straightforward and focused on understanding what brings someone to therapy. She listens for what feels stuck and helps people name the feelings that follow hard decisions, loss, or conflict. Conversations aim to clarify patterns that keep pain alive and to find practical ways to shift those patterns.
Lori draws on a mix of evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help with attachment issues, caregiver stress, communication problems, divorce and separation, and forgiveness work. She also supports people facing process addictions and sex addiction, workplace pressure, midlife questions, and issues common in young adulthood.
She is comfortable discussing faith-informed perspectives when that matters to a client, and she pays attention to how values shape choices and guilt. Sessions typically focus on small, concrete steps people can try between meetings.
People who choose Lori often want direct talk about feelings like shame or remorse, and clear ideas for coping in daily life. To begin, clients follow the site’s matching and scheduling flow and complete a short questionnaire before their first session.
How her evidence-based approaches translate to online work
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used to address specific problems in clear, practical ways. One approach focuses on recognizing and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; this helps with anxiety, guilt, and repetitive behaviors by teaching skills to respond differently to triggering thoughts. Another approach attends to attachment and relationship patterns, looking at how early connections influence current relationships and communication; this can help with relationship conflict and caregiver stress. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Lori discusses what a person wants to change, watches how strategies land in sessions, and adjusts methods based on the person’s goals and preferences. Clients and therapist decide together which techniques to try and when to shift course. Confirm the specific online session options before booking, as the biography does not list formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also make regular meetings more feasible for someone managing caregiving or busy parenting responsibilities. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework for remote sessions so practical progress continues between meetings.Areas of expertise
