About Lori
Lori Parrs is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with eight years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, eating and body-image issues, depression, relationship struggles, grief, and anger. Lori also supports people coping with parenting challenges, career concerns, ADHD, bipolar mood issues, trauma and abuse, and major life changes.
Her background includes work in varied settings and with diverse people. That experience informs a practical style that balances talking through problems with concrete steps forward. Sessions focus on understanding patterns and building skills that can be used between appointments.
Lori draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take action, and she integrates mindfulness and dialectical behavior ideas to manage intense emotions. Client-Centered principles guide how she listens and follows what matters to each person.
In practice she tends to be action-oriented, working with clients on specific goals and measurable steps. For someone who snaps at a partner, bottles up resentment, or struggles with anger at work, sessions aim to replace reactive behaviors with practical coping tools. Lori helps people build routines, communication skills, and emotion-regulation strategies.
She offers services in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps that align with those values, even when feelings like anger are strong. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting thought patterns that fuel reactive behaviors and on practicing different responses to stressors. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase awareness of triggers.Picking the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences, and she will adjust techniques as learning progresses. That can mean mixing ACT, CBT, and mindfulness tools to match what actually helps in daily life.
The original biography does not specify which online session formats are used, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine, allow shorter check‑in meetings when needed, and reduce travel time for appointments. Therapists can coach practical skills you can use between sessions, such as behavioral experiments, communication scripts, and quick grounding exercises to manage anger in the moment.
