About Laura
Laura Frelich is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Michigan. She has 19 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, mood concerns, and ADHD. She focuses on practical steps clients can use day to day.
Her approach is calm and direct, aimed at making talking about hard things feel easier. She helps people work through relationship tension, family problems, and parenting strain. Addictions and substance use concerns are also part of her practice, along with grief and trauma recovery.
Background and approach
Laura pays attention to how life events affect mood, energy, and daily routines. In sessions she creates a nonjudgmental space where feelings and thoughts are named and examined. She uses client-centered methods to follow each person’s priorities and CBT to identify patterns that cause distress.
That combination supports emotional awareness and skill building. Therapy often focuses on clear, small goals that fit into a busy life. Clients leave with tools to manage anger, reduce anxiety, and handle big changes.
The work is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. Laura speaks English and offers phone and video work along with text-based options. She encourages people to take the first step toward better daily coping and clearer choices about their next move.
How her approaches work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the person in front of her. In practice this means sessions start with your concerns and goals, and the therapist adjusts pacing and topics to match your needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete techniques to test and change unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and managing daily routines.Deciding which approach to use is a shared process. Laura will talk with each person about goals and preferences and explain options in simple terms. Together they pick strategies to try, check progress, and adjust the plan when needed. The therapist treats the work as a collaboration rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let people see facial cues and build rapport, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed, and live chat or text messaging can support quick supports between meetings or when typing feels easier. These formats increase flexibility and let people continue therapy from different places while keeping regular momentum.
