Does This Sound Like You?

You’re managing school, work, or family expectations, but inside it’s constant tension. Panic spikes without warning, sleep is rough, and old memories (or blank spots) keep you on edge. Maybe a medical diagnosis, chronic pain, or neurodivergence adds another layer, and relationships feel harder than they should.

You’ve tried to push through. Now you want tools that actually help your body settle, and space to untangle what happened so you can move forward as yourself.

How therapy helps

We’ll slow things down, make sense of what your nervous system is doing, and build skills that work in real life while we process the roots.

With therapy, you can:

Reduce panic and overwhelm so your mind can rest

Understand triggers and patterns from childhood and learn new responses

Build self-soothing skills you can use anywhere (breath, body, thought)

Improve mood, confidence, and follow-through on what matters

Set kinder boundaries with family, friends, and partners

Feel more present, clear, and connected day to day

about lori

Hi, I'm Lori Cyr.

LPC-Associate, founder of True Courage Counseling

I grew up in a small Louisiana town, studied education, and discovered I’m most at home helping people understand themselves. I believe truth and courage are what heal us: noticing what’s really happening inside, and taking the next right step with support.

Many of the clients I work with are adolescents and young adults carrying complex childhood experiences—sometimes obvious, sometimes the “not enough good” kind. Anxiety, depression, panic, nightmares, religious pressure, family conflict, or medical conditions can stack up and make life feel chaotic. You may be bright and capable and still wonder, “Why can’t I calm down?”

Together we’ll create a steady space. I’ll bring warm, person-centered care with practical CBT/DBT-informed tools. We’ll map your patterns, teach your body to settle, and work through the past at a pace that feels safe so you can live more freely now.
