About Laura
Laura Herp is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress and anxiety. She has two decades of experience supporting folks through addictions, trauma and abuse, and depression. Laura aims to treat everyone with respect and compassion while tailoring care to each persons needs.
She keeps sessions practical and focused on what matters most to the client. Conversations are shaped around the goals a person brings - whether that is reducing panic, improving coping skills, or rebuilding after a crisis.
Background and approach
Laura adjusts pacing and methods so people can move forward at a comfortable rhythm. Her approach draws on mindfulness techniques to help people stay present and calm during hard moments. She also uses Internal Family Systems ideas to help uncover and work with different parts of a persons inner experience.
These tools are chosen to match the issue and the individuals preferences. Laura believes taking the first step toward change takes courage, and she aims to make that step easier. She listens without judgment and helps create a plan you can try between sessions.
The focus is on practical skills, clearer thinking, and gradual change. Laura practices in Kentucky and brings 20 years of professional experience to her work. She works with people on a range of concerns from grief and relationship strain to eating and career stress.
Sessions are offered in English and designed to fit everyday life.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Mindfulness Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them. It teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and calm anxious moments. Internal Family Systems treats difficult inner experiences as parts of a persons internal system; it helps identify and listen to those parts so they feel less extreme and more manageable.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful in early sessions. Together you can try one method or combine ideas until you find what helps you make steady progress.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face work and shared exercises. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier when you want to speak without being on camera. Chat and text messaging support quick check-ins, brief coaching, and ongoing conversation between longer sessions. These options make it easier to set up therapy around work, family, and busy days.
