Lori Featheringill Timberlake , LMHC

Lori Featheringill Timberlake is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor with 28 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are feeling anxious, overwhelmed by stress, or stuck after loss. Lori also supports those managing low self-esteem, depression, or ADHD-related challenges.

Her sessions are conversational and straightforward. Lori treats each person with respect and listens first to understand what matters most to them. She and the client shape goals together and choose practical steps that fit the person’s life.

Lori draws on approaches that focus on thoughts, values, and present-moment awareness. She uses strategies that teach skills for managing intense feelings and for shifting unhelpful patterns. The aim is to build tools that can be used between sessions.

Her background includes long-term clinical work in Florida settings across many common concerns. That experience informs an approach that balances structured techniques with compassionate support. Lori adapts the pace and plan to match each client’s needs.

People often come to Lori looking for clearer direction, relief from recurring anxiety, help after grief, or better ways to manage mood and focus. She focuses on practical, step-by-step changes and on strengthening what already works in a person’s life.

Approaches that fit online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify what matters to them and to take small actions toward those values. It can help when stress, depression, or drifting goals get in the way of daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, panic, obsessions, and mood challenges because it breaks problems into manageable steps.

Choosing a therapeutic approach is collaborative. Lori works with each person to test methods and adjust them based on how well they fit the person’s goals and routine. Together they set practical objectives and pick tools that feel doable between sessions.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let someone touch base between meetings or journal thoughts in writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum between appointments.
