About Laurie
Laurie trained in social work and in mind-body medicine, and she combines those perspectives in her sessions. She draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to each person's needs. Sessions are conversational and practical, with attention to daily habits and ways to reduce overwhelming feelings.
Caregiver stress and issues around attachment, isolation, and communication are part of her additional focus. She helps people address guilt, shame, and forgiveness so they can move forward with clearer goals. Laurie pays attention to mood disorders, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, and social anxiety when they affect daily life.
Her style is respectful and compassionate, aimed at helping people regain balance and confidence. Laurie often blends mind-body approaches with talk-based strategies to support behavior change. She works with clients to set achievable steps and to build skills that last beyond sessions.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online care
Laurie blends mind-body approaches with other evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage emotions and daily stress. Mind-body work focuses on how breathing, gentle movement, and attention affect mood and stress, helping people feel more grounded. She also applies practical talk-based methods that teach coping skills, problem-solving, and ways to change unhelpful thinking patterns to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Laurie starts by listening to a person's goals and concerns, then discusses which techniques might fit best. She and the client adjust methods over time so the work matches changing needs, preferences, and what feels useful in everyday life.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit care into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins during breaks at work or between errands. Online work can let a person practice skills in real-life routines and maintain continuity when life gets busy, while the therapist helps translate exercises into things that fit daily life.
