About Lori
Lori Brax is a Kansas licensed social worker who focuses on helping people manage anxiety and everyday stress. She offers straightforward support for worry, grief, anger, low self-esteem, and motivation. Lori writes treatment plans to fit each person's situation and meets clients where they are in the moment.
She uses practical, goal-focused methods to help people change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Lori draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, keeping sessions concrete and action oriented.
Background and approach
Conversations often include problem-solving, skill practice, and small steps that build toward clearer routines and steadier mood. With 12 years of experience, Lori has worked with a wide range of concerns such as relationship strain, addiction, sleep and eating problems, ADHD, and career stress.
She also supports people facing aging and caregiver stress, hoarding, end-of-life issues, intellectual disability challenges, and recovery after sexual assault or abuse. Lori aims to create a respectful and compassionate space. She listens closely and adjusts the pace and techniques to match each person's needs.
That can mean brief coaching-style check-ins or deeper weekly sessions focused on trauma or depression. Sessions are available in multiple formats so people can choose what fits their life. Lori practices in Kansas and conducts work in English.
The first steps are simple: complete the platform questionnaire and schedule a session to begin shaping a plan that fits daily life.
How CBT and online sessions work together
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying and changing thought and behavior patterns that make stress and anxiety worse. It uses clear steps such as tracking thoughts, testing beliefs, and practicing new behaviors to reduce worry and improve daily functioning.In session, Lori keeps work practical and collaborative. She helps people set concrete goals, try short experiments between meetings, and review what did or did not help. That collaborative planning makes it easier to pick techniques that fit someone's life and priorities.
Online formats give flexibility for that kind of hands-on CBT work. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations and screen sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging support quick check-ins, short coaching-style exchanges, and follow-up between longer sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Lori will work together with each person to choose methods and formats that match their goals, schedule, and comfort level, and to adjust the plan as progress is made.
