Lori Arceneaux

Lori aims to create a warm and caring space where clients feel heard and understood. She draws on approaches such as the Gottman Method for relationship work, client-centered therapy to focus on each person's needs, and cognitive behavioral therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

Lori also uses emotionally-focused and mindfulness-based strategies when those fit the situation. She adapts methods to match what a person actually needs rather than following a single formula.

Over two decades of practice have included work with adolescents and adults around communication problems, parenting challenges, grief, trauma, and addictions. Lori helps people identify strengths and build practical skills for coping.

She often focuses on improving how people talk about difficult topics and how they solve day-to-day problems. Sessions aim to be straightforward and goal-oriented.

Lori partners with each client to set realistic steps and check progress over time. She encourages small changes that add up to better relationships and improved emotional balance.

People who reach out typically want concrete tools, steady support, and a therapist who listens. Lori helps with everything from family of origin issues and blended family concerns to body image, codependency, and forgiveness work.
