Dr. Lori Graham , LPC

Dr. Lori Graham helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. She also supports people coping with grief, trauma, addictions, and major life changes. Her practice includes work around career concerns, postpartum mood issues, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Dr. Graham is based in Colorado and speaks English. Dr. Lori Graham uses straightforward conversation as the starting point. She listens to what matters to the person sitting across from her, then creates a plan that fits those needs. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking, and can include looking at emotions, patterns from the past, and motivation to change. Her approach draws on client-centered work that prioritizes the person’s goals. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Emotionally-focused ideas and psychodynamic perspectives are woven in when they help make sense of relationship patterns or long-standing feelings. Dr. Graham brings decades of experience to therapy. She aims to create a respectful and compassionate atmosphere and adapts her style to each person. That can mean short-term solution strategies or deeper, longer-term work depending on what the person wants. People often come with concerns about relationships, codependency, control issues, or family of origin struggles. Others seek help for mood disorders, addiction, or finding renewed purpose after life changes. Dr. Graham frames progress in small, practical steps so clients can notice change between sessions.

Approaches that translate to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and perspective, offering a partnership where the therapist listens and reflects what matters most. This approach is useful for building self-esteem, processing life changes, and steering therapy at the person’s pace.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and introduces practical experiments and coping skills. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning.

Emotionally-focused ideas help people identify and work through strong feelings that affect relationships and self-image. This can be helpful for grief, trauma-related distress, and restoring emotional balance.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean short-term skill-building, motivational work for addiction, or deeper exploration of patterns from the past.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people see facial expressions and body language; phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text messaging can fit into a busy day, allow for shorter updates, or provide support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care when schedules or travel make in-person visits difficult.
