About Lori
Struggling? I’ve been there! I am Lori and have lived with Bi-Polar II, anxiety and panic attacks, depression and PTSD from trauma and toxic relationships most of my adult life. I also have members of my inner circle that also live with various life challenges. I live on both sides of the mental health journey. I received my certification from UNC-Chapel Hill in Peer Support in 2014. However, I have been listening to others and sharing my own experiences most of my life. I have rebuilt my life several times and explored the question of “who am I” and “why am and I here” multiple times through life. I try to live by the motto of "Living Life Forward" I am also a certified wellness recovery action plan trainer certified by AHP, (Advocates for Human Potential). Formerly known as the Copeland Center. I offer one on one peer support as well. You can find more information and contact information under the Living Life Forward banner on this page.
My Recovery Story
My recovery journey began after spending much of my adult life living with Bipolar II disorder, anxiety, panic attacks, depression, and PTSD caused by trauma and toxic relationships. Through healing, I learned the power of self-love, healthy boundaries, and recognizing my own worth. Supported by others in my inner circle who face their own life challenges, I discovered resilience, hope, and purpose. Today, I live with greater peace and balance, using my experiences to inspire others and show that recovery, growth, and a fulfilling life are possible.
My Motivation To Help
As a Certified HeyPeers Facilitator, I know firsthand how powerful peer support can be—it helped save my life. My recovery journey inspired me to support others facing similar challenges through understanding, respect, and empowerment. I provide one-on-one peer support and coaching, offering a safe space to share experiences, build resilience, and work toward recovery goals.
