Lorri Stiles , LPC

Lorri Stiles is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Virginia with eight years of professional experience. As an LPC, she holds a state license to provide counseling and clinical support to individuals and families. Over the course of her career she has worked extensively with trauma and abuse, grief and loss, anger management, and the challenges that come with major life changes.

Her early work focused on children and families, where she gained substantial experience in behavior modification and practical strategies to support healthier patterns. That background informs her approach with adults as well, particularly when addressing compassion fatigue, caregiving stressors, and relationship concerns. She also supports clients navigating eating and body image difficulties, addictions, parenting challenges, and mood disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder.

Lorri approaches therapy from a strengths-based perspective, viewing each person as the expert of their own story and building on existing resources to meet current struggles. She recognizes that beginning therapy takes courage and aims to create a supportive environment where clients can explore change, recover from past hurts, and develop skills to cope with ongoing life demands.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Care

Lorri integrates evidence-based therapeutic techniques with practical behavior-focused work to address patterns that contribute to distress. Her approach to behavior modification uses clear, goal-oriented strategies to change habits and reactions, which can help with anger management, parenting challenges, and daily routines that affect mood.

She also employs a strengths-based framework that centers the client as the expert of their own life. This method highlights existing abilities and resources to build resilience after trauma, loss, or major life transitions, supporting steady, client-led progress.

Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. Lorri works with each person to identify which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences and adapts the plan as therapy progresses to find the best match.

Online sessions via video calls, phone appointments, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and reach support from home or other convenient locations. These options provide flexibility in frequency and format so clients can engage in care in ways that suit their lives and foster consistent participation.
