About Laura
Laura Braswell is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Florida. She has three years of professional experience and brings a practical, lived-experience perspective to her work. She speaks English and works with people facing a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, addiction, and ADHD.
Laura describes a direct style that mixes listening with hands-on tools. Sessions focus on clear goals and doable steps, not long lectures.
Background and approach
She helps people notice unhelpful patterns and try small changes that fit their daily life. Her approach draws on several methods such as mindfulness, cognitive behavioral techniques, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. These methods are used to reduce overwhelming thoughts, build healthier habits, and clarify personal values.
Laura also uses attachment-based ideas to strengthen how people relate in close relationships. Clients can expect practical work on things like sleep, anger, eating concerns, parenting stress, career decisions, and coping with life transitions. She also offers support around trauma, fertility and adoption matters, intimacy issues, and recovery from substance use.
Laura aims to be a steady partner through change. She emphasizes realistic goals, motivation, and sometimes spiritual perspectives when clients request that context. Her tone is straightforward and compassionate, aimed at helping people take the next actionable step toward feeling better.
Approach-Based Care Delivered Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small, value-driven actions even when strong emotions show up. It’s useful for anxiety, depression, and for people who feel stuck and want clearer direction.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments. It’s often used for anxiety, sleep or eating issues, and to change patterns that get in the way of daily functioning.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people build safer ways of relating. This approach can be helpful for intimacy issues, communication problems, and healing from past relationship wounds.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. That plan can change as progress is made and new priorities emerge.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and situations. Video lets you use visual cues for deeper conversations, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is low, and chat or messaging works well for quick check-ins or shorter, frequent support. These options make it simpler to use therapy around work, family, and day-to-day life.
