About Lorri

Lorri Perez is an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) practicing in Oklahoma with 20 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and relationship concerns, and also works with people facing parenting and blended family issues. Sessions are aimed at helping individuals sort feelings and make practical changes in day-to-day life.

She uses straightforward conversations to identify what is most pressing. That can mean talking through communication habits, mapping out patterns tied to attachment, or addressing feelings like guilt, shame, and grief. Lorri draws on several approaches to match the work to the concern rather than using one fixed method.

Her methods include client-centered listening and cognitive behavioral tools to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behavior. She also uses narrative techniques to help people rewrite the stories they tell themselves, and solution-focused steps to set achievable short-term goals. These methods are applied to issues such as anger, intimacy-related struggles, and co-occurring mood concerns.

People who contact her can expect practical, action-oriented sessions. Conversations often result in small, manageable steps to try between meetings. Lorri pays attention to how family background and attachment influence current relationships, including the dynamics that come up in stephouseholds.

She has worked with this range of concerns for two decades in Oklahoma. Sessions are conducted in English. Before scheduling, readers should confirm current session options through the booking flow and the short matching questionnaire.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting back what the client says to build clarity about priorities. It helps when someone needs to sort feelings, name what matters, and decide what to address first.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and testing small changes to see if they help. This approach is useful for anxiety, low mood, anger, and attention-related challenges like ADHD. Motivational Interviewing is a brief conversational style that helps people find their own reasons to change and set realistic goals.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with clients to choose which approaches to try based on the persons goals and daily demands. That collaborative planning can include picking short tasks to practice between sessions and checking what does and does not help.

Because the therapists current session formats are not specified here, confirm the available online options before booking. Many people value online sessions for fitting therapy into work and family schedules, reducing travel time, and choosing interactions that match their energy level, such as a shorter check-in or a session without video. These practical benefits make it easier to keep regular appointments while managing a blended household.
