About Laura
Laura Arnold is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who brings nine years of clinical experience to her work. She focuses on common and overlapping concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, relationship struggles, and ADHD. Her tone in sessions is warm and straightforward.
She aims to make the first steps feel manageable for someone who is worried or overwhelmed. Her approach is conversational and interactive.
Background and approach
She listens first, then helps people set small, practical goals. She uses tools drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to teach coping skills and change unhelpful patterns. Motivational interviewing is used when people want help finding reasons and motivation for change.
Laura’s background includes work in outpatient and inpatient substance treatment settings as well as community and correctional environments. That experience shaped her ability to work with people facing addiction, trauma, and personality challenges. She draws on real-world strategies that can be used between sessions.
She emphasizes building a trusting relationship as the foundation for any change. Sessions are focused on the client’s needs and paced to their comfort. Laura supports people who want clearer communication, healthier boundaries, and better day-to-day coping skills.
Practical concerns such as career stress, financial worry, and difficulties with intimacy or attachment are part of her caseload. She also addresses issues like shame, codependency, and recovery from infidelity. Laura works in English and offers services across state lines to international clients when scheduling allows.
Approaches in online sessions and why they help
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a supportive relationship. It gives the person space to set the pace and decide what matters most in sessions, which helps with confidence and self-direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood and coping skills. It uses practical exercises to reduce worry, manage ADHD-related challenges, and change patterns that keep problems going.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the person about goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those needs. This makes it easier to adjust the plan over time if something isn’t working or if different skills are needed. The process is collaborative rather than one-size-fits-all.
Online therapy here uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make scheduling easier and to meet different communication needs. Video calls let people work face-to-face when they want that connection. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging support shorter check-ins, skill practice between sessions, or a way to keep momentum when time is tight. These options aim to make therapy flexible and more accessible for busy lives.
