Background and approach
Anger is one of the many concerns she helps people address. Laura favors a strengths-based style that highlights the resilience it takes to seek help. Sessions are collaborative, with the client guiding priorities while Laura offers tools and strategies.
She emphasizes identifying and strengthening natural supports outside therapy. Homework and small, achievable steps are a regular part of her approach. These tasks are designed to practice new skills between meetings and create steady progress toward personal goals.
She also incorporates psychodynamic ideas to look at how past patterns can affect present choices. Her background includes Equine-Assisted Therapy experience and long-term work with people facing suicidal thoughts and trauma. Laura aims to help people find more balance, better relationships, and clearer direction in life.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person's lead. The therapist reflects what matters most to the client and helps build goals based on the client's values and priorities. This approach is useful for many concerns including stress, relationship issues, and self-esteem.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is helpful for anxiety, depression, anger, and sleep or eating problems because it emphasizes clear, doable exercises and homework.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, goals, and personal preferences and then suggest which methods to try. The process is collaborative and can be adjusted as progress is made.
Online sessions offer flexibility for busy schedules and varied needs. Video calls let people meet face to face, phone sessions can be easier when video is not practical, and live chat or text messaging are useful for quick check-ins or shorter updates between meetings. These options help fit counseling into work breaks, caregiving routines, or days with limited bandwidth.
