Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Support

Laurie integrates trauma-informed care into her work, focusing on safety, stabilization, and processing of difficult experiences so clients can reduce distress and rebuild a sense of control. This approach is suited to people coping with abuse, abandonment wounds, or persistent trauma-related symptoms.

She also uses coaching and skills-based strategies to help clients develop practical tools for managing stress, improving relationships, and clarifying life purpose. These techniques emphasize goal-setting, coping skills, and step-by-step behavior change for challenges like career transitions, parenting concerns, or substance use patterns.

Laurie blends faith-informed counseling with these therapeutic methods, offering support that honors a Christian perspective when clients wish to integrate spiritual values into healing and growth. Determining the best combination of approaches is part of the collaborative process - Laurie works with each client to identify goals, preferences, and the methods that feel like the best fit.

Online therapy with Laurie is available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules and varied communication styles. These options allow clients to access consistent support from licensed professionals while balancing life responsibilities and geographic constraints.
