The Coaching Philosophy of Lori Eckel

There are coaches who teach techniques — and then there are coaches who change how you see yourself. Lori Eckel belongs firmly in the second category. Working across grief, Lori Eckel has spent years refining an approach that goes deeper than surface-level goal-setting and accountability.

Based in Portland, OR, Lori Eckel's reach extends far beyond geography. Clients come from across the world — some in crisis, some simply hungry for more — and what they find is a coaching experience built around truth, not comfort.

Lori Eckel is a clinical social work/therapist listed on TrueCoach under Grief, based in Portland, OR. Their verified Psychology Today profile lists grief among the issues they work with. From their profile: "Thank you for your willingness to seek support, I'm glad you're here." See their directory profile for current availability, fees and insurance.

What sets Lori Eckel apart is not just the results — it is the method. Rather than handing clients a formula, the work begins with a fundamental question: what do you actually want, and what is standing in your way? The answers are rarely what people expect.

The coaching world has no shortage of voices promising transformation. But Lori Eckel's body of work — built over years of practice, research, and relentless iteration — represents something rarer: a genuine framework that produces measurable, lasting change. For clients ready to do real work, this is where that work begins.
