More Than Just Talk Therapy

While Lori specializes in relationships (couples, families, the whole shebang), the practice covers everything from anxiety and depression to career coaching and life transitions. The practice aims to help people break out of autopilot mode.

The practice understands that sometimes deep childhood analysis is not what is needed. Sometimes strategies are needed to handle a stressful family dinner or a looming work deadline.

Atlanta Roots, Real Understanding

Being local matters. When a therapist understands the unique pressures of Atlanta life – the traffic that tests anyone’s patience, the hustle culture, the Southern family dynamics – clients may spend less time explaining and more time making progress.

Move Forward Counseling & Coaching aims to help people find their footing and take the next step. The practice offers guidance from professionals who believe change is possible.

Enhance Your Coaching Results

Most coaching clients see faster progress when they actively work on mental clarity and focus between sessions. BrainWave uses audio frequencies tuned to specific brainwave states — helping you enter the focused, open mindset where coaching insights actually stick. It works well as part of a pre-session routine or paired with journaling.

What to Expect from a First Session

A first session with Lori is a chance to openly discuss concerns and goals in a confidential, supportive space. Current challenges are explored, questions about the process are answered, and a path forward is collaboratively outlined. This initial meeting is about building understanding and ensuring a good fit for the client’s journey.

Who This Is Best For

This service is ideal for individuals and couples in Atlanta seeking professional, evidence-based support for relationship challenges, communication issues, or personal growth rooted in mental health principles. It is particularly suited for those who value the assurance of working with a licensed therapist for deeper, lasting change. If a client is looking for guidance beyond surface-level advice and prefers a structured, ethical approach, Lori’s practice is for them.

How to Get Started

To begin, clients can reach out to schedule a brief, complimentary consultation call where needs can be discussed and any initial questions answered. Contact can be made via phone or the inquiry form on the website. This is a step towards a more fulfilling life and relationship.
