About Laura
Laura Holmberg is a licensed professional clinical counselor who helps people dealing with stress and anxiety. She offers straightforward support for mood struggles like depression and bipolar disorder and for life transitions that feel overwhelming. Laura writes in a warm, down-to-earth way and aims to make starting therapy feel manageable.
She brings three years of clinical practice as an LPCC and a longer history working in related mental health roles.
Background and approach
Her background includes ARMHS work, case management, and clinical supervision, plus time spent delivering care in the community and in residential settings. That variety shaped how she pays attention to a person's life context and daily routines. Laura often centers practical problems alongside emotions.
Sessions may include talking through stressors, identifying simple coping steps, and looking at how isolation or guilt shows up day to day. She is aware of how housing, poverty, and systemic factors affect mental health and factors those realities into treatment planning. Her approach is collaborative and values the client's lived experience.
She is also guided by personal faith as a Christian, which can inform her perspective when it’s relevant to a client's goals. Language used in sessions is plain and direct to make ideas easy to try between appointments. Clients meet for conversations that focus on immediate needs and small behavior changes.
Laura supports people working through social anxiety, post-traumatic stress symptoms, questions of life purpose, and difficulties with self-love. She works in English and practices from Minnesota.
Practical approaches and flexible online care
Laura uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, actionable steps. One common approach emphasizes skills for managing stress and anxiety through breathing, grounding, and short behavioral experiments to test what helps in real life. Another approach focuses on mood regulation by tracking patterns and adjusting daily routines to reduce low mood and mood swings.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works with each person to decide which techniques match their goals, needs, and preferences, and adjusts methods over time based on what proves helpful. That collaborative decision-making helps shape a plan that feels doable.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits with Laura's practice. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when schedules permit. Phone sessions can be easier when a quick check-in is needed or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging let clients share brief updates, try coping ideas between sessions, and keep momentum when life is busy. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily routines and to continue work on stress, anxiety, and mood concerns without added travel.
