About Lori

Lori Featheringill Timberlake is a Florida-licensed counselor with 28 years of clinical experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and challenges related to ADHD.

Background and approach

She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, tailoring conversations and treatment plans to the unique needs and circumstances presented in sessions.

Her work also addresses a wide range of related concerns including adoption and foster care issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, blended family dynamics, body image, codependency, communication difficulties, end-of-life and hospice counseling, impulsivity, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, panic attacks, and midlife transitions.

She draws on practical, evidence-informed methods to support clients who want clearer coping strategies, improved motivation, and renewed confidence. Lori emphasizes collaborative, individualized care and frames the decision to seek support as a courageous first step toward a more satisfying life.

She aims to empower clients through thoughtful dialogue and flexible treatment plans that reflect each person’s goals and values.

Practical approaches for online change

Lori frequently integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into her work, helping clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is another approach she uses to help people clarify values, accept difficult emotions, and take committed action toward meaningful goals.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Lori partners with clients to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and personal preferences, and she adjusts plans as progress and insights emerge.

Online therapy with Lori is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support from a licensed professional without needing to rearrange major commitments, and they allow therapeutic work to continue in ways that suit each person’s life.
