About Lori

Lori Brax is a Kansas-licensed social worker who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, and life transitions while also addressing concerns such as grief, anger, self-esteem, motivation, and ADHD.

Background and approach

With 12 years of clinical experience, she aims to create a respectful, sensitive, and compassionate space where clients feel heard and supported. Her practice emphasizes tailoring conversations and treatment plans to each person’s unique needs so therapy reflects individual goals and circumstances.

Lori uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a primary method to help clients identify patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to distress and to develop practical strategies for change.

She also brings experience addressing a wide range of concerns including relationship and intimacy-related issues, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression and bipolar symptoms, eating and sleeping difficulties, caregiver stress, hospice and end-of-life matters, hoarding, intellectual disability, isolation and loneliness, and sexual assault recovery.

Lori frames the work collaboratively and encourages taking small, manageable steps toward a more fulfilling life.

How CBT and Online Therapy Work Together



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new ways of responding to stress, anxiety, and mood concerns. In practice this often includes learning skills for managing symptoms, restructuring negative thinking, and practicing behavioral changes that support daily functioning.

When beginning online work, the therapist and client collaborate to find the therapeutic approach that best fits the client’s goals and preferences. That collaboration includes discussing whether CBT techniques, skills training, or a blended approach will be most useful, and adjusting the plan over time based on what helps the client make progress.

Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allows flexibility in how therapy fits into a busy life. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care when schedules or mobility create barriers, and they support ongoing skill-building between sessions through written exchanges or brief check-ins.
