Finally considering therapy? Great! I have many years of experience as a trauma focused therapist. My client demographic is highly variable as I enjoy seeing all humans thrive and be able to experience peace and joy. I work with adults and children, individuals and couples, servicemembers and LGBTQAI. I am strengths-based with conscientious focus on religious trauma and sexual assault survivorship. I hold an M.Ed in Counseling and Human Services and am pursuing a PhD in Clinical Sexology.
I am a safe person to objectively hear your prior trauma and events for which you might carry guilt shame. It's time for you to let go and be free...the freedom to lead a reasonably happy life. (Note, I do not write letters for LOA)
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Lori Mcdunn. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Love her so much

She is like a long lost BFF that listens and gives advice but doesn’t tell me what to do, she gives me tools I can use to better whatever situation I am dealing with.

Lori is the sweetest human and therapist. She’s exactly what I have been looking for and needing in therapy. She is very knowledgeable in all aspects and always wiling to dig deeper and ask questions to try to help you figure out what’s going on. I always feel welcome and heard in our sessions.

She is absolutely wonderful. She listens but also asks me pointed questions that make me think of things differently. She absolutely does not allow me to get away with things though and that is a huge part of my therapy.

Lori is great. She is genuinely invested in not only solving the puzzle of my psychological issues, but in my passions and seeing me happy. You can tell that she loves her work, and it shows in how effectively and intuitively she seems to understand how people operate. She wastes no time at all, every minute is spent on getting somewhere. After the very first session, I felt more confidence and hope for myself than I had in a while, and that pattern has continued. so far. Never before have I been so excited to go to therapy, and I've seen a lot of shrinks

Lori is a true gift. I am so thankful for our conversations. Coming from a therapeutic background with being quick to recommend therapy to others, I’ve found myself struggling to find someone to truly connect with that understands working with fellow professionals as well. I am so thankful for advocating for myself with better help to get a true gem after I was close to just giving up from a few failed attempts. Highly highly recommend her!

Lori is a "real" person, bringing her expertise and perspective but allowing the client to participate in their own process. It is a collaborative conversation, as opposed to traditional "therapy". I don't feel analyzed, I feel supported.

In just two short sessions Lori has helped me out of an extremely toxic relationship and gave me the courage to leave when I had none. She has shown me how strong of a woman I am and how valuable I am to my community and into this world.

I can’t even start how Lori has changed my life. If I had to it would be because she listens and wants to help. And that’s the biggest thing for me, her wanting to help.

Lori is such a bright spirit. She is an uplifting therapist, someone to challenge you if you're open to it, and incredibly sweet. I have learned a lot of helpful tools from my sessions and I am very thankful for all of her time!

Lori Mcdunn is, hands-down, the most successful therapist that I've had. I've had over ten therapists over the past twenty years. Every other therapist has been a mandatory appointment alongside a psychiatrist OR a court-mandated therapist.
Lori is, to be fair, the first therapist that I've sought out on my own (rather than being a requirement alongside a psychiatrist).
Short review... Lori's good at handling my expectation and fear of rejection. She's not critical, but exploratory. Lori is excellent at being a confidant-type professional where I'm comfortable talking about my issues. Lori provides excellent interpretations, which give me a much better point of view than I would have on my own.
Lori is also very good about reading messages, journal entries, and otherwise keeping up with me.
This is the best therapist that I've ever had, and I've had over a dozen. Max stars.

This lady is great! I felt like I could be myself before I even knew who that was. I am so grateful to have met her and to have had her to turn to when my life was literally falling apart. I have done therapy in the past but never had I made this much progress in such a short amount of time. This lady is amazing at what she does. AMAZING!
