About Laura
Laura Bianchini is a warm, compassionate counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and life transitions. She holds an LPCC and brings 12 years of clinical experience in Ohio to her work. Her style is open-hearted and nonjudgmental, and she focuses on practical steps people can use right away.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clients notice what matters most to them and take small committed steps toward those values.
Background and approach
Mindfulness techniques and motivational interviewing are woven into sessions to increase awareness and strengthen motivation. Sessions balance talk and concrete practice. Clients can expect clear goals, coping strategies, and skill-building for sleep, eating, anger, or impulse control.
Laura also supports work on family patterns, attachment and communication problems, and the strain that caregiving or major life changes can create. Her approach includes solution-focused work to find immediate, practical changes that feel doable. She also draws on yoga and meditation practices to help reduce physical tension and build calm when that fits a person's needs.
Laura emphasizes collaboration. She helps people set realistic objectives and adjusts pace to each person’s capacity. She offers video, phone, chat, and text-based sessions so people can pick the format that fits their daily life.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Laura uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify their values and take small steps toward them, even when stress or anxiety feels overwhelming. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without being ruled by them and is often helpful for depression, anxiety, and life transitions.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. CBT provides practical tools for changing sleep and eating habits, reducing worry, managing anger, and improving daily routines.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose which methods fit best for their goals, needs, and pace. Sessions adapt over time as priorities change and progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversations and practicing skills together. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Chat and text messaging let people send updates, get brief coaching between sessions, or use written prompts to reflect on progress. These options make therapy more flexible around work, caregiving, and daily life commitments.
