Laura Wiedlebacher , LPCC

Laura Wiedlebacher is a licensed mental health professional in Ohio with 26 years of clinical experience. She holds the LPCC credential - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor - which authorizes her to provide clinical counseling in the state. Over the course of her career she has worked with people facing stress and anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, and depression.

Laura views each person as the expert of their own story and looks for the strengths clients already bring to difficult situations. She recognizes that taking the first steps toward change takes courage and treats that decision as an important part of the healing process. In her work she focuses on supporting and empowering clients as they move toward a more fulfilling and satisfying life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Laura often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with more balanced, practical ways of thinking. CBT is useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and many everyday difficulties because it focuses on changing thoughts and behaviors that maintain problems.

She also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills, which teach practical strategies for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and tolerating distress in healthier ways. DBT techniques can be particularly helpful for people who struggle with impulsivity, relationship conflicts, or strong emotional reactions.

Finally, Laura draws on Mindfulness Therapy to help clients build present-moment awareness and self-compassion. Mindfulness practices can support stress reduction and clearer decision making by helping people notice their reactions without getting swept away by them.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process - Laura works with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so therapy remains focused and practical.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access care from home or other convenient locations while working with licensed professionals and therapists.
