Lori Justice, LMFT, LCMFT

Lori Justice is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD concerns, and family conflict. She frames the work around each person's strengths and lived experience. Lori says taking the first step toward change takes courage, and she aims to support people through that process.

She uses simple, practical conversation to help people make sense of what feels overwhelming. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and everyday habits that get in the way of feeling better. Lori listens, asks questions, and helps set small, realistic goals people can try between sessions.

Over 12 years of practice, Lori has worked with adults facing trauma, abuse, and the ongoing stresses of caregiving, chronic illness, or major life transitions. She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care issues, attachment concerns, and body image struggles. Her background includes experience with aging and geriatric issues as well as autism and related challenges.

Lori holds a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist credential, appearing as LMFT and LCMFT, and she practices in Kansas. She works in a collaborative way that keeps the client in charge of their goals. People who choose her often want straightforward, skills-focused help rather than long, abstract therapy talks.

If someone is thinking about starting, Lori asks clients to name a few practical concerns they want to address first. That helps shape short-term steps and the pace of work moving forward.

Approaches that focus on thoughts and daily habits

Many people find it useful to start with approaches that look at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior. Cognitive-style techniques help identify unhelpful thinking patterns and offer practical ways to test and change them. These tools can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

Another useful set of techniques targets everyday habits and small behavior changes. This work breaks goals into manageable steps, builds routines, and tracks progress so improvements become more likely and noticeable. That kind of approach can support ADHD-related challenges, coping with chronic illness, and caregiving stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Lori works collaboratively to match techniques to a person's needs, goals, and preferences. Together they try methods and adjust the plan based on what feels most helpful.
