About Laura
Laura Hank is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Pennsylvania. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, grief, parenting challenges, relationship strain, trauma, and ADHD. Her style is warm and nonjudgmental and she focuses on practical next steps clients can try between sessions.
She draws on about 15 years of experience working in schools, telehealth, and community outpatient settings. That background means she is used to short-term problem solving and longer-term support, depending on what a person needs.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to build skills for emotional awareness, mood management, and better day-to-day functioning. Therapy sessions use simple, evidence-informed methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thinking and change behaviors.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening closely and shaping the work around what matters to the person. Mindfulness techniques teach ways to calm the body and focus attention when stress or anxiety rise. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, achievable goals and track small changes over time.
People who come for parenting or family concerns get concrete tools for managing conflict and routines. For body image, social anxiety, and young adult issues she focuses on skill building and steady progress. Sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
The subscription model allows scheduling that fits changing needs and can be canceled at any time.
Approaches for online work and practical tools
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building the work around what matters to the person. The therapist provides empathic support and helps clients set the pace for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and offers step-by-step exercises to reduce anxiety or low mood. Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple attention and breathing practices to manage stress and increase present-moment awareness.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify goals and try methods that match those goals and preferences. That may mean using CBT exercises some weeks and mindfulness or solution-focused tasks in others, adjusting as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is useful for conversations that benefit from face-to-face interaction. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, brief coaching, or reaching out between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep continuity of care when schedules change.
