How Laura works
Laura uses clear tools to build coping skills, improve communication, and change unhelpful thinking patterns. She also brings attention to how past hurt can shape current reactions and choices. Her work includes techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to support behavior change.
She also uses Client-Centered and Solution-Focused methods to keep sessions grounded in a person’s values and immediate goals. Trauma-Focused Therapy is part of her toolkit when past events need careful attention. With three years of counseling experience, Laura aims to create a respectful, collaborative relationship in sessions.
People can expect to talk through what matters most and leave with concrete next steps. She emphasizes small, manageable changes rather than overwhelming plans. Laura offers multiple ways to meet, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
She works within a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and tailors pacing and tools to each person’s needs.

Online support options
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel heard and can clarify what they want to change. Online sessions use that same attitude to help a person name goals and decide next steps in a collaborative way.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches simple steps to spot and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In remote sessions, CBT often includes brief exercises, written worksheets, and practice between meetings to build new habits for anxiety, mood, and eating-related concerns.
Motivational Interviewing supports people who are unsure about change by exploring ambivalence and boosting internal motivation. It works well online through short check-ins, goal-setting, and reinforcing small successes when addressing addictions or behavior change.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try approaches that fit the person’s needs, and adjust over time so sessions stay useful and focused. This is a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Online sessions are flexible and can fit around work, childcare, or travel. Video calls allow more face-to-face interaction, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and text messaging helps keep momentum between meetings. These options make it easier to keep consistent progress while balancing everyday life.
