You deserve to get the care you need.
Who I Am
Hello, I’m Lori Peters. I’m a faith-based licensed counselor in the State of Pennsylvania, a National Certified Counselor, a certified grief specialist and a trauma-informed professional. I graduated from Penn State University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Journalism and from Shippensburg University of Pennsylvania with a Master of Science degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Since 2006, I have worked with numerous individuals and families in my professional and volunteer work who have suffered loss and trauma. I am also a griever of many losses. I have a heart and passion for helping those in the grieving process because of what I’ve experienced and witnessed. Losing someone or something is one of the most difficult events of life. I would feel honored to help you navigate life after loss.
Life may be hard now, but you will smile and laugh again.
It has taken me a long time to enjoy life again after experiencing my losses, including six of them within 18 months. I did not want to live let alone laugh. It wasn’t until I began work with my own therapist, found a support group and started writing that I was able to find me again. I’m Lori 2.0 now - stronger and more resilient.
