About Lori
Lori Stalcar is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado. She brings 19 years of clinical experience and focuses on practical, real-world strategies people can use right away. Lori speaks plainly and aims to help people move past overwhelm and feel more capable in daily life.
She uses a client-centered approach to listen first and understand each person's goals. Lori also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and build new habits.
How Lori works
Mindfulness practices are woven in to help with stress, anxiety, and coping with intense emotions. Lori helps with a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, low self-esteem, and career strain. She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, relationship and intimacy issues, and compassion fatigue.
Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment issues, body image, caregiver stress, and first responder stress. In sessions she blends short-term focused work with deeper exploration when it’s needed. That can mean setting small goals, practicing new skills between visits, and reflecting on life patterns that keep repeating.
Lori adapts her approach to what each person needs and prefers. People can expect straightforward conversation and practical tools to try between sessions. Lori accepts international clients and offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

How Lori’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's needs. In practice this means sessions begin with the therapist asking what matters most and shaping the work around those goals. It is helpful for people who want a collaborative, empathetic space to make changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. Lori uses it to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. This approach is often useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and habit change.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and calm the nervous system. It pairs well with CBT when people need tools to manage strong emotions in the moment.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Lori works together with each person to pick methods that fit their goals and preferences, adjusting as progress is made. That collaboration helps ensure the plan fits daily life and evolving needs.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging gives flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversation and exercise demonstrations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, coping tools between sessions, or when someone prefers writing over speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
