About Laura
Laura Fletcher is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with 23 years of experience. She combines counseling and coaching skills to help people facing stress, anxiety, grief, and life transitions. Her approach aims to make change feel doable and grounded in what matters most to each person.
She has a long background in health and wellness work including roles inside large healthcare settings. That experience shapes how she supports people dealing with chronic illness, caregiving strain, cancer-related concerns, and end-of-life issues.
How Laura works
She draws on practical methods that focus on daily life and improving coping skills. In sessions she centers the person's goals and strengths. She uses client-centered conversation to help people clarify values and find motivation.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools are used to notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors in everyday situations. For people who carry trauma or difficult memories, she offers approaches that address distressing memories and their effects. Mindfulness practices are paired with other techniques to help reduce reactivity and increase calm in daily moments.
The work often includes coaching-style steps for behavior change when people want concrete plans. Laura commonly helps with relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, workplace stress, addiction struggles, bipolar and depression symptoms, and compassion fatigue. She also supports those processing family of origin issues, divorce, fertility challenges, and communication problems.
Her style is straightforward, empathetic, and focused on practical next steps.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds shape current relationships. Online sessions use conversation to identify patterns in relating and to practice new ways of connecting that reduce anxiety and improve trust. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviors. In virtual work, CBT often uses short exercises, thought records, and concrete homework to change day-to-day routines and symptoms. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm in stressful moments. These techniques fit well into brief online check-ins and guided exercises.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then adapt methods as the work progresses. Clients and the therapist decide together which strategies to try and when to shift focus.
Online psychotherapy offers flexibility across several formats. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging work for quick check-ins, journaling-style updates, or when someone prefers writing. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or medical schedules while still using attachment, CBT, and mindfulness tools.
