Lori Hunter

Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #101029

Gottman Level 3 Trained. EMDR Level 2 Trained.

Before my career transition, I spent 20 years in the corporate world and now have 12 years of experience counseling couples, families, and individuals. I adjust my approach to be client-centered depending on their journey. My specialties include working with couples, families, co-parents, and individuals with anxiety and trauma. I also work with high-conflict couples struggling with relationships. I help couples build intimacy, teaching effective emotional processing techniques that directly improve thoughts and behaviors.

I'm currently working with individuals with past trauma or anxiety due to life transitions and experiences. I use EMDR, cognitive behavioral and solution-focused brief therapy to help individuals change negative beliefs and patterns to create a new chapter to live a healthier and more satisfying life.

I'm working with couples using the Gottman Method to help them connect on both an emotional and intimate level. However, if a couple is struggling with an affair or thoughts of separation, that is when I help them realign their goals, needs and wants to assist in creating marriage 2.0. It's my passion to help couples who want to be better connected and work through the everyday challenges of life.

I specialize in couples of all stages but have specific experience guiding couples who are divorcing to do so with love and respect in a way that honors both people/children involved.

If you have just gone through a difficult divorce and are looking to put the pieces back together, I can assist you individually on your therapeutic journey, assist in family sessions, or do co-parenting counseling.

I guide people to find their solutions not "fix" them. "To teach a man to fish" is much more helpful than "giving him a fish".
