About Lori
Lori Fitch is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 24 years of clinical experience. She has worked in outpatient settings and in schools, and she has a long history supporting people after crises and traumatic events.
She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and life changes. Lori also addresses parenting concerns, blended family issues, addictions, grief, intimacy-related worries, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, and career stress. She works with questions about sexual identity and a range of attachment or relationship concerns.
Her sessions are practical and direct. Lori listens, asks focused questions, and offers concrete strategies you can try between visits. She uses parts of client-centered work to focus on your perspective and goals. She blends cognitive-behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits. She also draws on mindfulness skills to manage overwhelming feelings.
Her background includes years of trauma work and school counseling. That experience shaped her approach to crisis response and to supporting parents and students when routines and roles change. She has experience with issues that often come up in blended households, such as loyalty conflicts, communication breakdowns, and managing stepped-in parenting roles.
Sessions move at a practical pace and can include coaching-style tools when useful. Lori describes herself as interactive and direct, and she uses a sense of humor where it helps. To begin, prospective clients follow the site matching and scheduling steps to arrange a first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's perspective and priorities. In practice this means sessions center on the concerns you bring and on clarifying goals and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thought and behavior patterns. It provides tools to test unhelpful beliefs and to build new habits for anxiety, depression, or relationship strains. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and label strong emotions and the interaction patterns those emotions create in relationships. That can be useful for attachment worries and intimacy issues.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Lori will collaborate with you to decide which techniques to use based on your goals, preferences, and what shows progress in early sessions. She adapts methods so they are practical and usable between meetings.
Confirm the session formats offered before booking, as format details are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some people prefer audio-only conversations for lower bandwidth or less camera time, while others choose full video for face-to-face interaction. The therapist will discuss what fits your routine and what will help you stay consistent with sessions.
