Getting to know Lori Baber

Hello, I'm Lori Baber! I graduated from the University of Southern California with my Master's in Social Work, and I am a California Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I also hold Certificates in Sexual Health and Sex Therapy from the University of Michigan. I have been providing therapy and counseling services to individuals, families, and groups for more than eleven years. I have experience working with depression, anxiety, cancer, multiple health diagnoses, trauma, sexual health, body image, grief and grieving, and many other concerns impacting the lives of those who seek my services. I have provided individual and group therapy to cancer patients, their families, and caregivers, as well as community education about sexual health, body image, depression, and intimacy. My style is warm, empathetic, and tailored to you and your goals?I am committed to helping alleviate the distress you might currently be experiencing. I provide a safe base for my clients by creating an atmosphere of mutual trust, honesty, and transparency. I assure a talk-space that is free of judgment, respectful, and interactive. I use evidence-based therapies to help people create change and resolve the concerns that bring us together. Together, we discuss the method of therapy best suited to addressing your concerns and create a treatment plan accordingly. I most frequently use acceptance and commitment, cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, psychodynamic, and humanistic therapies to address the issues presented to me. It takes strength and courage to seek assistance, and I want you to know that you are not alone?that it is possible to create change and improve your life. By reaching out, I know you are ready for this next step, and I cannot wait to assist you!
