CLIENT SERVICES MANAGER & TESTING COORDINATOR

Lori Bridgwood

Lori  Bridgwood is the Client Services Manager and Testing Coordinator at Resilience Counseling, where she brings warmth, professionalism, and patience to every interaction. Having once been the parent on the other end of the phone seeking help for a loved one, Lori understands firsthand the importance of compassion and clear guidance while navigating mental health services. She believes it is a privilege to come alongside those seeking help with mental health and feels blessed to be part of the Resilience team.

Before her career in client services, Lori spent five years working in the fashion industry in New York City, where she studied Fashion Illustration at the Parsons School of Design. After marrying her husband, with whom she just celebrated 40 years together, they moved from Long Island to Virginia in 1995 to raise their six children. Today, their family has grown to include 13 grandchildren, with another one on the way!

Lori’s personal journey inspired her to become involved in child advocacy, including working with a group of parents who successfully helped change the law to make clergy mandated reporters. Through both personal experience and professional dedication, Lori is committed to supporting individuals and families with empathy, patience, and understanding.

When not working, Lori enjoys spending time with her husband, their family, and their church community. She and her husband also share a love of the arts, especially history and music.
