Many of the people I work with feel like they’ve been holding everything together on the outside while quietly falling apart on the inside. They’re carrying the weight of old experiences, navigating relationship stress, or feeling overwhelmed by emotions that seem too big to manage. They often feel stuck in patterns they can’t name or disconnected from themselves and the people they care about. My approach is warm, steady, and collaborative—focused on helping you understand your patterns and reconnect with yourself.

Well was created with the purpose of helping individuals, couples, and families grow independently and as a whole. We realize that life has its challenges and can sometimes feel overwhelming and unrelenting, which may leave us feeling hopeless. Other times life may have us feeling stuck and needing someone to walk along side us as we seek understanding.

My ideal clients are women, young adults, parents, and caregivers who feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve them, especially in relationships. Often, they come to therapy feeling exhausted by repeating the same cycles, unsure how to move forward, or disconnected from themselves and their needs. They may be leaving or healing from difficult relationships, adjusting to life transitions, or trying to better understand why they feel the way they do. In our work together, we will focus on building insight, increasing self-awareness, and gently working through the emotions and patterns that feel hard to shift.

More than just a way to capture attention, the spelling of Inner Fōkus also carries a personal meaning to the founders. The name is a nod to the German heritage shared by both Dr. Lori and Dr. Patrick, since “fōkus” is the correct spelling of “focus” in German. Our heritage, culture, and environment can have great impacts in shaping who we are. Our name, Inner Fōkus, also serves as a prominent reminder of the importance to occasionally break from current patterns and try new things.

It’s no mistake that you have found yourself here… looking for help… support… guidance… something to get you out of stuckness… the “yuk”. You’re losing sleep at night, distracted during the day and just can’t seem to get it together. You’re consumed by sadness, fear, guilt and/or shame, feeling like an unmade bed … day after day after day. Maybe you’ve tried a thing or two… or maybe you think you have tried it all, and you’re still not where you want to be. What if I told you that there is a different path? A different approach to help you truly heal and live the life you want to live?

What a privilege it is to be able to be a part of your journey. I'm under the impression that human suffering is often the result of not being able to live as our authentic selves. Many adverse experiences can impact our ability to be our authentic selves, such as trauma, anxiety, depression, bad relationships, and being stuck in patterns we wish we weren't in. While many of the clients I serve are men and masculine‑identifying individuals, I am equally grateful to walk alongside people of all identities—women, LGBTQ+ folks, and BIPOC clients—as they honor their stories and reclaim their healing.

I work best with people who are committed to staying engaged in their lives. There are many internal and external roadblocks that get in the way of full engagement, and I believe that therapy can help when we are in that stuck place. I love to help people access their emotional truth through building self-awareness, allowing space for all of their feelings, and processing past traumas. I have found that individual mental health is inseparable from relational health and enjoy working with couples or individuals about relationship issues.

Do you ever feel stuck in the same patterns—like part of you knows what needs to change, but something keeps getting in the way?
I’ve spent over 20 years helping people make sense of those patterns and gently shift them. I draw from both Clinical Counseling and Marriage and Family Therapy, which allows me to support both individuals and the systems they’re part of. My work is grounded in Adlerian therapy, which means I pay close attention to how your life experiences, relationships, and beliefs have shaped the way you move through the world—and how we can build something more aligned with who you want to be.

I work with individuals to address sexual health related issues that may be getting in the way of a healthy and satisfying sex life. I help couples and individuals to improve overall sexual health and connectedness, while also working to improve overall relationship satisfaction and communication. Issues may include: sexual pain, desire discrepancies, orgasm problems, discomfort with your body image, sexual boredom, etc. I recognize that change can be difficult and seek to provide the support you need to achieve your goals by listening to you, helping to identify the outcome you desire, and motivating you to reach your goals.

Infidelity Therapists
How does therapy for infidelity work?
A skilled infidelity therapist will provide a safe space for clients to communicate their feelings and concerns. The goal is to be completely honest about what led to the cheating and how it has affected the entire family to prevent it from recurring in the future. The therapist will help the clients work on rebuilding mutual trust and respect and developing better communication and conflict-resolution skills. If the goal is to remain a couple, clients will learn the “danger signs” for their specific relationship, and they will make a renewed commitment to be faithful.
How long does therapy for infidelity take?
Recovery from infidelity can take time, and it can vary from person to person. Generally, a therapist will want to see the clients at least once a week for around six months. Then the sessions can be arranged as needed, depending on the clients’ individual needs. While therapy may end or shift to an as-needed basis, it can take up to two years or more for some clients to fully recover from infidelity.
How does therapy help the partner who was cheated on?
When a client discovers their partner’s infidelity, their trust in the relationship and in the life they had together may be shattered. They often experience mental health symptoms, such as anxiety, depression, grief, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). They don’t always want to stay in the relationship; they may feel ambivalent or may even want to leave. Therapy gives these clients a safe and healthy way to communicate all of their complicated emotions and concerns.
How does therapy help the partner who committed infidelity?
Infidelity often occurs when one or both partners’ emotional needs are not being met in the relationship. Therapy can help this client understand why they cheated and figure out how to address those unmet needs without resorting to infidelity in the future. This can lessen (but not entirely eliminate) the risk of repeated infidelity. Clients who cheat may also feel intense guilt about deceiving their partners, a sentiment that they can work through in therapy.
