Welcome, I am Lori Wilson. I am a clinical social worker licensed in Arizona and Tennessee, I also am a licensed substance use counselor in Arizona. I have worked in the field since 2004. I have been working as a contracted remote therapist with Betterhelp since May 2022, and enjoy the ease of meeting with clients in the different settings that are offered. My previous experience is with Veterans with mental health and substance use, pregnant and post-partum women in residential treatment, men and women inpatient, outpatient, providing individual and groups for trauma, anxiety, depression and substance use. I have a bachelors and masters in social work with a specialty in substance use disorder treatment, and clinical services.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Independent Substance Abuse Counselor who has been practicing in Arizona for twenty years. My experience includes providing individual and group therapy to adults and adolescents in the areas of Life Management Skills, Mental Health Concerns, Career Path Development, Addictions, Domestic Violence, Relapse Prevention and Anger Management. I believe in a multi-modal therapeutic approach that assist clients in identifying and nurturing strengths they already possess. A strong therapeutic alliance between client and therapist is essential as well as a holistic approach to treatment that focuses on the mind , body and spirit in balance. It is my belief that a body in balance leads to greater self-esteem, self-awareness and self-acceptance. I look forward to working together with you. I assure you that I will provide a comforting, judgement free, and safe space that supports personal growth, healing and achievement.

The issues I work with in therapy are mind-body issues. I do not have a mental illness approach. What is good for the body is good for the brain and vice versa. My openness and inclusivity influence my approach to therapy. I do not judge. I accept. I am more interested in your uniqueness than your diagnosis and I expect a full recovery in treatment. I fit well with expectations from a person who is here on their own volition, is willing and open to change, and is trying to develop resiliency in life, problem-solving without drama in relationships, and self-respect. I try my best to provide a secure space and collaborate. I take notes and I read them at the end of the session. As opposed to homework, I offer experiments to try between conversations. Depending on preference, I can be direct in helping people identify their goals by collaborating on a treatment plan. I can also be non-direct and identify our goals through the flow of the conversation. A first session with me begins with a casual greeting and formalities regarding confidentiality, rights, and risk assessment questions, followed by a lead-in question to get the ball rolling.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. My years of experience comes from a variety of settings: outpatient treatment institutions, inpatient treatment institutions, and community based settings which have included one on one sessions. I utilize the following therapeutic approaches: Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, solution-focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, Strength based therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, and Mindfulness. I have training and experiences working with individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, anger issues, and addiction. Everyone has their own narratives/perspectives and I understand it can be challenging to be vulnerable with your thoughts and emotions but the reward of validating yourself can be most healing. I am confident I can teach you to identify and validate your emotions in a healthy manner. I can help and/or be that listening ear. Change is possible when you are willing to make a commitment to the process. I challenge you to be open minded and be courageous with me....

Hi: I am Dorrie or Dorothy, whichever you prefer. I have been a counselor for 28 years - 24 years working with Veterans and their families and the last 4 years on Better Help. I received my Master of Social Work degree from the University of South Carolina. The foundation of therapy I use is positive psychology, the cognitive behavioral approach, emotional literacy, and intentional living to guide you through your issues. Positive psychology helps you to explore yourself through recognizing the positives in your life and accentuating them. The cognitive behavioral approach enables you to examine your decisions through understanding the connection between your thoughts, beliefs, physical reactions/responses, and behaviors. The emotional literacy approach examines how your emotions influence your decisions. I call myself a resource counselor because I will provide you with a wealth of materials, including handouts, worksheets, articles, videos, and internet links, to review and hopefully apply to your life. I am a Christian and believe that the Bible expresses wisdom and encourages love. God made each of us unique, and "God saw that it was good." I am an LGBTQ+ counselor. As an experienced therapist, I will tailor my approach to meet your specific needs. My goal is to equip you with the tools to make informed decisions and help you enjoy life to the fullest.
