Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Support
Laurie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address strong emotions and life transitions. One approach focuses on skills for emotional regulation and coping - teaching practical tools to notice triggers, calm physical reactions, and respond differently to anger and stress. This helps people who want immediate strategies to manage intense feelings.A second approach centers on trauma-informed care that gently works through past hurts and abandonment wounds. It emphasizes pacing, safety, and building trust so clients can process painful memories and reduce their impact on daily life. This approach is often used for long-standing trauma, grief, and patterns like codependency.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Laurie will discuss options, listen to each person’s goals and preferences, and adjust methods as progress is made. She treats therapy as a shared effort where plans are revised based on what helps most.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people send updates between sessions or have flexible, brief exchanges. These options aim to make consistent work on emotions and goals more practical for busy lives.
