Background and approach

Her experience includes supporting people with anxiety, depression, bipolar concerns, trauma and abuse, and addictions. She also works with stress, relationship and family problems, grief, self-esteem challenges, and ADHD. Career pressures, parenting challenges, sleep and eating struggles, and anger are also areas she addresses.

Laura has a background in crisis counseling and has worked with people who have experienced PTSD and suicidal ideation. She has also practiced equine-assisted therapy as part of her broader work. Her style is warm and direct, with a focus on practical steps and building natural supports.

Clients can expect collaborative planning and a focus on tools they can use day to day. Laura aims to help people find more calm, clearer priorities, and steady progress toward their goals. She encourages curiosity, persistence, and connection as part of recovery and growth.

Approaches and online therapy options

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and helping people set their own goals. The therapist follows the client's lead, offers empathy, and supports personal choices to help with concerns like low self-esteem, relationship stress, and grief.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change them. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep or eating difficulties, and for managing ADHD-related routines and focus challenges.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals, try out methods, and adjust the plan based on what works for the client. That collaborative process helps narrow in on the best mix of approaches and techniques.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone works when bandwidth is limited, quick live chat or text messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, and messaging can support steady progress between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, and daily life.
