About Lori

Lori Stalcar is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 19 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and anger. Lori also helps people facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, and career transitions.

She uses straightforward, practical methods. Sessions focus on identifying patterns, learning specific skills, and testing small changes between meetings. Lori draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered approaches to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors.

Lori also incorporates mindfulness and motivational interviewing to support steady progress. Mindfulness practices are used to reduce reactivity and improve emotional awareness. Motivational interviewing helps clarify what matters most and strengthen commitment to change.

Her work includes attention to trauma, attachment-related concerns, and co-occurring conditions such as ADHD and bipolar disorder. She supports people dealing with abandonment, body image, communication problems, and the stress caregivers face. First responder issues and coping with disasters are also within her experience.

Sessions are practical and task-focused. Lori helps clients build skills they can use between appointments. She encourages clear goals and ongoing review so people can judge whether the approach is helping them move toward what they want.

Clients can expect a direct, collaborative process that emphasizes real-world strategies. Lori offers services in English and accepts international clients. For those who want to begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what the client brings. The therapist follows the client's concerns and reflects what is most important, helping people clarify their goals and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It breaks big problems into manageable steps and teaches skills that reduce reactivity and unhelpful behavior. Mindfulness Therapy trains simple attention and breathing skills to increase awareness of emotions and reduce impulsive reactions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods fit best based on current needs, goals, and preferences. Plans are adjusted as progress is reviewed so the approach stays practical and relevant.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm available online options before booking. Online work can help fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and making it easier to schedule sessions around work or caregiving. Therapists use these formats to help people practice skills between meetings and apply new strategies in everyday settings.
