Laura Angers Maddox , LPC

Laura Angers Maddox is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who brings a warm, respectful approach to therapy. She earned a master's degree in Marriage and Family Counseling in 2012 and combines formal training with practical experience across multiple settings. As an LPC she is a state-licensed mental health professional, and her background also includes credentials that reflect additional training in therapeutic techniques and standards of care.

Over the years she has worked with individuals, families and couples in group homes, traditional office settings and through in-home counseling. That breadth of experience informs her ability to adapt to different life situations and developmental stages, whether the focus is on parenting challenges, career concerns, or relationship difficulties. She has particular experience supporting survivors of trauma and abuse, and she also works with people coping with depression, stress, anxiety and relationship distress.

When addressing trauma, she uses Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a structured approach designed to help process traumatic experiences and reduce symptoms. She also uses cognitive-behavioral techniques for depression and anxiety and applies systems-oriented thinking when working with couples and families. Her counseling style is accepting, understanding and encouraging, with an emphasis on building a trusting relationship based on respect and genuine care.

Therapeutic Approaches Offered Through Online Care

Laura Angers Maddox uses evidence-informed methods that translate well to online formats. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and to improve daily functioning. Trauma-Focused Therapy combines trauma-specific techniques with cognitive-behavioral tools to help people process traumatic events and build coping skills that reduce emotional distress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens closely and helps clients explore their values, goals and strengths.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. She works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as therapy progresses so treatment remains responsive and practical.

Online therapy with her can take place by video call, phone session, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for people with busy schedules, mobility concerns or geographic limitations. These options make it easier to maintain consistent sessions, try different formats for different needs, and access licensed professionals from wherever the client is located.
