About Lori
Lori Shealey is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Pennsylvania with ten years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, compassion fatigue, and major life changes. Lori writes that she supports people through challenging transitions and the emotional weight they bring.
She uses a collaborative style in sessions. Lori focuses on practical coping strategies and on talking through feelings so clients can manage daily demands. Sessions are paced to match each person’s needs and current life responsibilities.
Lori aims to reduce overwhelm by breaking problems into manageable steps. She reviews what’s working, what isn’t, and adjusts plans as situations change. The emphasis is on concrete tools that can fit into work, family, and other routines.
In grief work she allows space for the full range of emotions and helps people identify ways to carry on with daily life. For anxiety and stress she helps clients spot triggers and practice skills that reduce intensity in the moment.
Her approach is straightforward and collaborative. Lori partners with people to set short-term goals, track progress, and revise strategies when needed. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.
BHow sessions work
How Lori’s approaches translate to online work
Evidence-based techniques focus on practical skills and short-term change. One common method helps people learn clear coping skills for anxiety and stress - identifying triggers, practicing calming exercises, and testing small behavioral changes to reduce reactivity. Another approach used in grief and depression work emphasizes pacing activity and re-engagement with daily routines to rebuild structure and improve mood.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, current challenges, and preferences, then try strategies that fit that situation. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps and what doesn’t.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, and medical appointments. Video or phone options can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a break, or remove the need to be on camera when that is not helpful. Licensed professionals can work with you to shape sessions that fit everyday life and obligations.
