About Laura
Laura Premo is a licensed mental health counselor in New York who helps people manage stress, anxiety, and self-esteem concerns. She supports clients facing career challenges, life changes, and family-related issues. Her approach centers on clear goals and practical steps that fit each person’s situation.
She has 12 years of professional experience and works to make sessions feel welcoming and nonjudgmental. Clients can expect a calm space to talk through what matters most to them.
How Laura works
She emphasizes collaboration and tailors methods to each person rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan. Laura often focuses on coping strategies for transitions such as divorce or pregnancy and on everyday problems like workplace stress or money worries. She also helps with panic attacks, social anxiety, and feelings of isolation.
These are handled with straightforward techniques aimed at improving day-to-day functioning. Communication skills and addressing control issues are common practical aims in her work. She supports people dealing with caregiving strain and with questions about life purpose or motivation.
Sessions look at what’s getting in the way now and what small changes could help. Her style is supportive and goal-oriented. She encourages clients to set achievable steps and checks progress along the way.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on Laura’s availability.

Online support options
How therapeutic methods meet online care
Laura uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach emphasizes learning coping skills for anxiety and panic attacks so people can reduce intense symptoms and handle triggers more calmly. Another approach centers on problem-solving for life transitions and workplace stress, helping people break big problems into manageable steps and test new ways of handling them.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with clients about their goals, preferences, and day-to-day routines, then suggest techniques to try. That plan can change over time based on what helps and what doesn’t, so the process stays collaborative.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits for this work. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skills practice and real-time feedback. Phone sessions can be a good fit when low bandwidth or not being on camera is preferable. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between sessions or fit a short conversation into a busy day. These options give flexibility for follow-up, homework support, and steady progress without the need for in-person meetings.
