Lora Hack, LCSW

Lora Hack, LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker), provides individual therapy for adults with a focus on the effects of trauma, including rape and military sexual trauma, as well as life stress and transitions. She works to help people reconnect with their authentic selves, build inner resilience, and increase self-awareness while reducing symptoms of anxiety and depression and improving relationship functioning.

Her practice centers on a collaborative therapeutic relationship where clients are invited to be fully seen and deeply heard. Through compassionate, nonjudgmental engagement she guides exploration of past wounds, current stressors, and repeating themes that often remain unresolved, creating space to examine how those patterns influence present life.

Therapy is tailored to each person using a range of clinical approaches and delivered at a pace that feels manageable. The work supports undoing old patterns and developing new ways of relating to oneself and others, with an emphasis on cultivating self-worth, trust, and more stable relationships.

Known for a warm, accepting stance, Lora offers a supportive environment where clients can practice new skills, deepen empathy for themselves, and pursue meaningful changes in their lives.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values, practice mindful awareness, and accept difficult thoughts or feelings so they can take meaningful action. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning; it is commonly applied to anxiety, depression, and panic-related concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the therapist offers empathy and support while clients lead the pace and direction of their growth.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lora works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and may combine elements from different approaches as appropriate. That collaborative planning helps ensure therapy feels relevant and manageable.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate different schedules, locations, and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent care and to integrate therapy into a busy life while working with licensed professionals who tailor support to each individual.
