Lori has been working as a therapist for 30 years, and got her professional counselor license in 2002.  Early in her career, she worked with adolescents affected by substance use and mental health disorders.  She later worked with college students at the Center for Counseling and Psychological Services at Penn State for 11 years, and has been with this practice for 15 years.  She enjoys working with all college students, with a particular interest in international students; with those who have experienced trauma; those currently experiencing depression and/or anxiety; people struggling with grief and loss; and people affected by alcohol or other substance use.  Lori's approach to counseling is grounded in humanistic psychology, and she also utilizes concepts from cognitive-behavioral, reality, and interpersonal therapies in her work with clients.
