Lori Gabrielsen, LPC

Lori Gabrielsen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia. She draws on two decades of clinical experience to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, and relationship or intimacy-related concerns. Lori aims to build an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can say what they are feeling and thinking. She emphasizes straightforward support for people trying to make changes in their lives.

In sessions Lori works with practical tools and clear conversation. She uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses. Attachment-based ideas inform how she looks at relationship concerns, and client-centered principles guide a respectful, listening-first stance.

Her background includes many years helping clients cope with life changes, compassion fatigue, sleep problems, and grief. Lori focuses on steady progress rather than quick fixes. She helps people set realistic goals and practice small steps toward them.

Lori describes therapy as a collaborative effort. She listens to what matters most to each person and adapts methods to fit their situation. The result is practical coping strategies paired with ongoing emotional support.

People who reach out can expect simple, direct guidance aimed at improving daily functioning and emotional well-being. The work is paced to each person's needs, with attention to building confidence and clearer choices moving forward.

How Lori's approaches translate to online work

Lori uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in a straightforward way: clients learn to notice difficult thoughts and feelings and then commit to actions that match their values. This helps when anxiety, grief, or low motivation gets in the way of meaningful goals.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice different behaviors. CBT can be useful for managing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and sleep problems by teaching concrete skills and small experiments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lori will discuss which methods feel most helpful and tailor sessions to each person's goals and preferences. The process is collaborative, with adjustments made as needs change.

Many people find it straightforward to practice skills learned in sessions during everyday life, which helps progress stay practical and relevant.
