About Lori
Lori Fitch is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with more than two decades of experience. She brings a practical, down-to-earth style to sessions and focuses on clear, helpful steps people can use right away. Lori often works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, and questions about sexual identity.
Her background includes early work with trauma survivors and supporting families affected by the September 11th attacks.
Background and approach
That experience shaped her work with people who have lived through loss, crisis, or violence. She also serves as a high school counselor, where she builds programs for students and families and supports everyday school-related stress. Lori blends Emotionally-Focused Therapy, client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing.
She aims to match practical tools to each person’s needs, so sessions look different depending on the issue. Expect active listening, straightforward feedback, and some homework you can try between sessions. Common topics she helps with include trauma and abuse, addictions, parenting and blended family issues, body image and self-esteem, sleep problems, bipolar mood concerns, and coping with major life changes.
Lori also supports people dealing with attachment questions, abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, and complex relationship dynamics such as codependency and commitment worries. Her tone is warm, nonjudgmental, and occasionally humorous when appropriate. She values collaboration and helps people set realistic goals.
If someone wants practical strategies plus emotional understanding, she aims to provide both in each session.

Online support
How emotional work and practical tools translate online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name their feelings, and then use those emotions to change unhelpful patterns in close relationships. This approach is often useful for people dealing with attachment issues, intimacy concerns, or intense reactions to loss.Client-centered therapy puts the person’s experience at the center of each session. The therapist listens with warmth and acceptance, and the work moves at the client's pace while respecting their goals and values.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It provides concrete exercises to challenge unhelpful thoughts and to build new habits for managing anxiety, sleep problems, or mood symptoms.
Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try different strategies, and adjust the plan based on what feels helpful. Clients and therapist work together to pick approaches that match symptoms, values, and daily life demands.
Online therapy offers flexibility to fit care into a busy schedule. Video calls let people use visual cues and deeper conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera, and live chat or text messaging can provide shorter check-ins or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care across different routines and locations.
