Background and approach

A common thread in her work is tackling guilt, shame, and control issues. She helps clients identify unhelpful thoughts and try new responses that feel doable in daily life. That work often leads to less isolation and more self-compassion over time.

Her approach is straightforward and goal-oriented. People leave sessions with small, practical steps to try between meetings. Laura aims to make therapy a steady, manageable part of navigating life’s ups and downs.

She offers support around communication problems, forgiveness, self-love, and women's issues. Sessions are in English and designed to meet people where they are, focusing on what matters most right now.

How CBT and Solution-Focused Work Online

Laura uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT sessions often include short exercises and homework that can be practiced between meetings to reduce anxiety and improve mood.

She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to identify small, practical steps toward the changes a person wants. This approach focuses on strengths and workable actions, which can speed progress on specific concerns like communication problems or caregiver stress.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they try methods that feel like a good fit and adjust them over time based on what works.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is useful for in-depth conversation and visual cues, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can fit short check-ins or busy schedules. These options help people keep therapy consistent while balancing work, caregiving, or other obligations.
