Background and approach

Parenting concerns, intimacy-related issues, anger, and career questions are included in her areas of focus. Laurie brings a faith-informed perspective and often integrates clients' spiritual values when it fits their goals. That approach can help people explore forgiveness, work through abandonment wounds, and clarify life purpose.

She emphasizes self-love and practical strategies for improving day-to-day relationships. Sessions focus on clear goals and steady progress. Laurie offers coaching-style guidance together with therapeutic conversation to help people make decisions and try new ways of coping.

Her style is direct and compassionate, aimed at helping clients leave sessions with tangible next steps. With 12 years of experience as an LPC, she draws on proven techniques to support change. People seeking support can expect a calm, goal-oriented process that balances emotional healing with real-world action.

Approaches that guide online care

Laurie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional healing. One approach emphasizes trauma-sensitive work that helps people process painful experiences and reduce their impact on daily life. Another focuses on building self-esteem and healthy relationship patterns through skills practice and reflective conversations that aim for clearer boundaries and improved communication.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Laurie will discuss options and tailor methods to the client's goals, values, and how they prefer to work. That collaborative process helps identify whether trauma-focused interventions, values-based counseling, or coaching-style support will be most helpful.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls make it possible to have real-time, face-to-face conversations. Phone sessions can fit into a work break or be used when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging allow for shorter check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, and a way to reflect without being on camera. These formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent around busy schedules and life demands.
