About Laura
Rev. Laura Gillom uses a practical, interactive approach to help people manage stress, grief, anxiety, anger, and depression. She is an LCSW with 15 years of clinical experience and practices from Mississippi.
Laura speaks plainly and works to create a respectful, compassionate space for people to talk through hard feelings and difficult events. Laura adapts therapy to each person instead of following one fixed method. She blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy to match what someone needs.
How Laura works
Sessions focus on clear goals, real-life strategies, and changing unhelpful thoughts and patterns. People often come for help after losses, painful relationships, or major life changes. Laura also supports those coping with compassion fatigue, addictions, communication problems, guilt, shame, and loneliness.
She helps people notice patterns, build new ways of coping, and repair ruptured connections when possible. Her style is warm, direct, and interactive. Conversations and exercises are practical and paced to the person’s needs.
She aims to help people leave sessions with something concrete to try between meetings. Therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.
Payment uses a cancellable subscription that varies by location and availability.

Online support options
Approaches you can try online
CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and testing new ways of thinking. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress because it gives clear skills and actions to practice between sessions.Narrative Therapy helps people tell their story differently by separating the person from the problem. It can help when feelings of shame, guilt, or isolation make it hard to move forward and people want to reframe painful experiences.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust the plan as you go. That collaborative process helps make sure you get techniques that feel useful and realistic for your life.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls let you use visual cues and longer conversation time. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat or text-based messaging gives short, frequent touchpoints and can fit into a busy day. These options make it easier to get consistent support while balancing other responsibilities.
