About Lori

Lori Houppert is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York who works with adults seeking support for concerns such as trauma and abuse, grief, depression, anxiety, relationship and parenting challenges, career transitions, ADHD, and related stressors.

Background and approach

She presents a warm, inviting presence and aims to create a comfortable atmosphere for people who may feel uneasy about reaching out for help. With 12 years of clinical experience, Lori draws on a blend of client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, existential ideas, mindfulness practices, and trauma-focused work to tailor care to each person.

She combines active listening and collaborative planning so sessions focus on the specific issues a client brings and on practical steps that match their goals. Lori’s background includes work in agency and elementary school settings, informing her understanding of varied life stages and disruptions.

Clients can expect an approachable therapist who prioritizes clear, individualized treatment plans and steady encouragement throughout the therapeutic process. She emphasizes partnership in therapy and supports clients as they navigate changes, build coping skills, and pursue greater emotional well-being.

Therapeutic approaches and what online care can offer

Client-centered therapy emphasizes an empathic, nonjudgmental stance in which the therapist listens closely and responds to each person's priorities; this approach helps people feel heard and supports exploration of values and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical skills to change them, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and work or relationship challenges. Trauma-focused therapy targets processing and coping with past traumatic experiences by building safety, regulation skills, and gradual integration of difficult memories.

Deciding which approach or combination will be most helpful is part of the collaborative process. Lori works with clients to assess needs, preferences, and goals and then shapes a treatment plan that draws on appropriate methods so therapy feels relevant and actionable.

Online sessions with video calls, phone appointments, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for scheduling and make it easier to maintain consistent care from different locations. These formats allow licensed professionals to provide ongoing support, skill coaching, and therapeutic conversation in ways that fit a client's day-to-day life and evolving needs.
