About Lori Underwood

Hello, I'm Lori!

Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist MFC #83023

As a therapist, my primary aim is to help clients experience more success in life and in relationship with others through increased awareness, accountability, and an interest in personal and professional growth.

I have experienced 25 years of success delivering measurable results with a focus on relationships as a senior business development leader working for some of the most dynamic organizations in America.

I am confident I can HELP you and I very much look forward to hearing more about your background. Here is mine:

Over the course of own my own climb up the corporate ladder, I was fortunate to lead and work alongside many, many different types of people and all kinds of teams to accomplish sizable initiatives with favorable and measurable results.

I offer executive-level clients (including business owners and other leaders) hope based on my own experience as well as proven tools which can be applied toward solving real and sizable business issues.

I began to recognize that our most important relationships–with spouses, significant others, children, family, friends, and colleagues–could also benefit from the same focus on shared hope and a thoughtful action plan. I looked at what brought me most satisfaction and made the decision to leverage my knowledge, experience, and skills to help others succeed at home, in their most important relationships and also in their careers.

Based on my education and experience, I have found success helping clients resolve problems with a focus on exploring available solutions.

Peace is most often achieved and sustained when clients are better able to work through and beyond situational (and/or longer-term) issues often associated with depression, anxiety, trauma, feelings of low self-esteem, sadness, and/or isolation.

Having graduated in 2011 with an M.A. in Marriage and Family Therapy, I am proud to be Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist MFC #83023. I’m also a Top 3 Marriage Counselor in San Diego, CA!

I’ve been seeing Lori Underwood for over 2 years and I’m so thankful I did. Lori has a way of making you feel grounded so that unraveling and healing can take place. It’s nerve wracking to even take the steps to find a therapist but the moment I stepped in her office I felt comfortable. She has the ability to gauge where you are and provide you with the necessary tools and challenges you need to move into a state of understanding and peace with yourself and provided a safe space from day one. Thank you Lori for your guidance and service to myself and others.

Contact Me

Please contact me TODAY to explore the opportunity for clarity and peace in your life and relationships. I look forward to answering your questions, learning more about your UNIQUE situation, and getting an appointment scheduled that works for you.

Please note that I work with several busy executives and other professionals for whom leaving the office becomes the biggest hurdle to forward movement in their most critical relationships–in marriage, family, and work. For a fee, I do arrange sessions at client offices and am happy to discuss details with you in person or by phone. I also conduct sessions via Skype for out-of-town clients.
