About Laura
Laura Arnold is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on anxiety, stress, depression, and addiction-related concerns. She brings nine years of clinical experience to her work and aims to create a calm, accepting space where people can begin to sort through painful feelings.
Her approach is conversational and down-to-earth, with a focus on practical tools for daily life. She uses methods from client-centered therapy to keep sessions person-focused.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps with changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. Laura has experience across outpatient and inpatient settings, including substance use treatment and correctional facilities.
That background informs how she supports people facing grief, trauma, addiction, and complex mood concerns such as bipolar disorder. She also addresses relationship difficulties, intimacy issues, and struggles with self-esteem and isolation. Her style emphasizes empathy and unconditional positive regard.
Sessions are conversational and interactive, so people can practice new skills in the moment. She encourages gradual steps and celebrates small changes as progress. Laura works with people who want guidance through life transitions, coping strategies for anxiety, or support after loss.
Her goal is to help each person find approaches that fit their values and daily routines.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy centers the person and their goals; it means sessions focus on listening, reflecting, and helping someone decide what matters most. This approach is useful for people who want respect for their pace and choices and for building trust over time.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It works well for anxiety, depression, and stress because it gives clear tools you can practice between sessions to reduce worry and improve routines.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose and adjust methods based on goals, needs, and what feels most helpful. That conversation can start in the first few sessions and shift as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction and skills practice, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat can work for brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to keep continuity during life changes.
