About Lori
Lori Arceneaux is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Louisiana with 22 years of experience. She has spent much of her career helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, addictions, and anger. Lori speaks English and works with individuals who want clearer communication and steadier reactions to life's pressures.
She began by working a lot with children, teens, and the adults around them. Over time she expanded to support people dealing with family-of-origin issues, blended family questions, adoption and foster care concerns, and fertility and caregiver stress. Her practice also covers codependency, commitment issues, body image, and first responder issues.
Lori uses client-centered work alongside cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness. She also draws on emotionally-focused ideas and the Gottman Method when relationship repair and communication are the goals. In sessions she helps people notice patterns, try different responses, and practice new ways of handling conflict.
Her approach is practical and relational. She helps people identify strengths and small steps that reduce reactivity and rebuild trust in relationships. Lori pays attention to how past losses, abandonment, or trauma affect present behavior and decision making.
Many people come to her because they snap at a partner, hold growing resentment, or struggle with anger at work. Lori helps clients set clear goals, rehearse alternatives, and track progress so daily life becomes easier to manage.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to remote work
Lori uses client-centered techniques that focus on listening and helping people set practical goals; this approach helps when the main aim is clearer thinking and better choices. Cognitive behavioral therapy involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors, and it works well for anger, anxiety, and stress because it breaks down problems into manageable steps.She also uses emotionally-focused ideas for relationship work, which focus on understanding emotional responses and improving connection between partners. Choosing the right combination of these approaches is a collaborative process - the therapist and client discuss goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps most.
