🌿 Welcome to CRM Talk Therapy – The Art of Finding Your True Self

Hi, my name is Lori Pahl, a mental health counselor with over 15 years of clinical experience across crisis evaluations, inpatient, residential, and outpatient settings. Therefore, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside clients through life’s most painful—and most potent—chapters. I am honored you are here!!!

Clinical Experience Rooted in Compassion
Licensed in both Colorado and Nebraska as a mental health counselor, I offer online mental health counseling grounded in compassion, clinical skill, and a deep reverence for your personal story. Whether you’re seeking support through grief, anxiety, life transitions, or everyday emotional overwhelm, my approach combines evidence-based tools with an empathetic presence.

A Legacy of Resilience
Because of my upbringing on a Nebraska farm, homesteaded by my grandparents, I was instilled with a legacy of grit, humility, and reflection. As such, this legacy continues to shape how I show up as a therapist: with steadiness, sincerity, and heart. I understand the value of hard work, the importance of family, and the power of resilience.

Life Beyond the Therapy Room
Outside of sessions, I’m a proud mom of three incredible sons, their equally amazing partners, and five spirited grandchildren who fill my days with laughter, light, and endless stories. My loyal pup, Linx, and my gentle cat, Lily, are daily reminders to slow down, be present, and lean into joy. I share these personal details to let you know that I understand the complexities of life and the importance of finding joy amidst the challenges.

Why I Created CRM Talk Therapy – The Heart Behind My Practice

Finding Yourself in a Fast-Paced World
Due to today’s fast-paced world, it’s easy to lose sight of yourself. Between work demands, emotional overwhelm, and the quiet ache for deeper connection, many find themselves drifting from their sense of truth. Therefore, I founded CRM Talk Therapy to offer a refuge and a realignment. To meet you—wherever you are—with compassion, insight, and unwavering presence. Whether you’re curled up at home, traveling for work, or simply trying to breathe through a difficult day, our virtual sessions are designed to hold space for your healing.

Beyond Symptom Management
Furthermore, this isn’t just about symptom management. It’s about reconnecting with your essence, reclaiming your values, and choosing a life that feels real and fulfilling. As a result, I blend evidence-based approaches with heartfelt presence—so if you’re longing to feel more empowered, centered, and truly yourself, you’re in the right place.

Reclaim Your Joy
Because life is too beautiful to stay stuck in unhappiness.
