About Lorie
Lorie Muellenbach is a California Psychologist (CA Psychologist 33283) and an Arizona Psychologist (AZ Psychologist PSY-006099) with nine years of clinical experience. She works with stress, anxiety, grief, parenting concerns, anger, and ADHD. Sessions are conducted in English from Arizona.
She helps teens, adults, and older adults sort through what feels overwhelming. Conversations focus on practical strategies for emotional regulation, clearer thinking, and more manageable day-to-day routines. Lorie emphasizes calm, steady problem-solving rather than quick fixes.
Her work includes attention to neurodiversity and emotional regulation challenges. She supports people who are navigating adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress, and family of origin problems. She also addresses mood disorders, panic, obsessive-compulsive concerns, and life-purpose questions.
Lorie balances talking through feelings with actionable tools. That can mean skill-building for impulsivity, steps to reduce chronic stress, or planning around parenting strain. She favors approaches that produce concrete changes in daily life.
Clients can expect a conversational style that blends emotional understanding with hands-on techniques. The focus is on learning ways to respond differently to frustration or anger, and on building routines that lower reactivity over time. She asks about goals up front and revisits them as work progresses.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Evidence-based approaches used in her practice focus on teaching clear skills and changing daily patterns. One common approach is skills-based cognitive work that helps identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with more useful perspectives. This helps with anxiety, anger, and repetitive negative thinking. Another approach emphasizes behavioral techniques that set small, manageable changes in routine and reactions. Those techniques can reduce impulsivity and lower reactivity to stressful triggers.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and what feels most useful in day-to-day life. Sessions include review of progress and adjustments when needed.

In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow focused check-ins during a break at work or between appointments. Therapists licensed in the client's state can guide how techniques translate to remote work and support practical steps that fit into everyday routines.
