About Laura
Laura Premo is a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on stress and anxiety. She helps people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward. Her tone is direct and supportive, and she aims to make the first steps feel manageable for anyone seeking help.
She has worked in the field for 12 years and holds a Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential, LMHC. Laura draws on experience helping people with confidence, motivation, and low mood.
Background and approach
She also supports those dealing with life transitions and recovering from past hurts. In sessions she makes room for honest talk and practical problem solving. Clients can expect a calm, nonjudgmental space where feelings are named and options are explored.
Goals are set together so work stays focused and relevant to daily life. Her areas of focus include family concerns, career questions, coping with change, and caregiver stress. She also helps people facing panic attacks, social anxiety, and relationship communication problems.
Financial strain, issues around pregnancy and childbirth, and questions about life purpose are also within her practice. Laura adapts approaches to each person rather than using a single formula. She encourages small, achievable steps and checks in on progress regularly.
Her aim is to help people build skills they can use outside sessions and to find clearer direction as they move forward.
Therapeutic techniques and online care
Laura uses well-established, evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and symptom relief. One common approach emphasizes learning coping skills for anxiety and panic attacks, teaching breathing, grounding, and step-by-step exposure ideas that reduce avoidance and build confidence. Another approach centers on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with real-life experiments to change how daily worries are handled.Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about your goals, daily routines, and what has or hasn't helped before. From there she will adapt methods to fit your needs and preferences so progress feels realistic and collaborative.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video is useful for deeper conversations and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be good for shorter check-ins, and text messaging suits quick reflections or ongoing support between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into work, caregiving, and other busy schedules.
