About Lori
Lori Justice is a licensed marriage and family therapist who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and challenges related to family life. She brings 12 years of experience and a calm, straightforward manner to sessions. Lori frames therapy as a collaborative process and treats each person as the expert on their own life.
She helps clients name what feels hardest and build practical steps forward. Conversations focus on strengths and realistic changes that fit daily life.
Background and approach
Lori listens for patterns in relationships and stress responses, then works with clients to try new ways of coping. Her background includes extensive clinical work in Kansas over more than a decade. That experience informs an approach that balances compassion with clear, usable strategies.
Lori aims to help people feel more stable and able to manage hard days. In early sessions she focuses on understanding what brought someone to therapy now and what matters most to them. From there she and the client set small goals and check progress together.
The aim is steady improvement, not sudden fixes. Lori also pays attention to practical obstacles like caregiving demands, chronic illness, or major life transitions. She helps people find ways to carry on responsibilities while making room for healing.
Her style is patient, direct, and focused on what helps next.
Approaches that guide online conversations
Evidence-based techniques are used to help people manage symptoms and build healthier patterns. One approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and acting; this helps with anxiety, stress, and low mood by breaking cycles that keep problems going. Another approach centers on improving relationships and communication by noticing interaction patterns and practicing different responses; this is useful for family conflict and attachment issues.Picking the right approach is a team effort. Lori will work with each person to figure out which methods match their needs, goals, and day-to-day life. She adjusts strategies over time and checks in about what is working and what needs to change so therapy stays practical and relevant.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Many clients find remote sessions helpful for fitting therapy into a busy schedule, shortening travel time, or having a quieter meeting when that is possible. Talk with the therapist about how to structure sessions to fit work, caregiving, or medical demands so therapy can be woven into everyday life rather than add burden.
