About Lori
Lori Wenglikowski is a licensed social worker with ten years of clinical experience in Michigan. She focuses on helping adults who are dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, anger, and mood challenges. Lori brings a calm, straightforward style to sessions and aims to help people build practical coping skills.
She often works with clients from the LGBT community and those managing grief, addictions, sleep problems, or ADHD symptoms. Lori uses approaches that help people notice thought patterns, manage strong emotions, and process past hurts.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and paced to fit each person’s needs. Lori emphasizes skill-building over lectures. She teaches concrete techniques for reducing anxiety, regulating intense feelings, and improving sleep and daily routines.
Lori also helps people make career decisions or handle major life changes by breaking issues into manageable steps. When trauma is part of the story, she uses methods that guide people through memories in ways that feel controlled and gradual. For mood disorders such as bipolar or long-term depression, Lori supports clients in tracking symptoms and identifying strategies that support stability.
Her sessions are approachable and goal-focused. People leave with tools they can use between meetings and a clearer plan for next steps. Lori aims to create an affirming space where adults can address hard problems and move toward steady improvement.

Therapeutic approaches and online delivery
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test them with real-life experiments. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and problems with daily routines to create clearer thinking and more effective behavior.DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, emphasizes skills for managing intense emotions, reducing conflict, and improving relationships. It teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal techniques that are useful when anger or mood swings are present.
EMDR, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a method used to help process traumatic memories so they feel less overwhelming. It guides people through memories in a paced way while helping them form new, less distressing perspectives.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Lori will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, symptoms, and preferences. That plan can change over time as needs evolve and progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let a therapist and client work face to face when convenient. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or an easier option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to send updates, try brief skill coaching, or check in between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into work, caregiving, and busy schedules.
