About Laura

Laura Denham-Evans helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and the effects of trauma and abuse. She also supports clients working through parenting challenges, anger, low self-esteem, depression, ADHD, and major life changes. Laura is a licensed clinical social worker in California and brings ten years of experience to her work.

Her approach is straightforward and respectful. Sessions focus on what matters most to the client and on practical steps to feel better day to day.

Background and approach

Conversations are tailored to each person rather than following a rigid script. Laura aims to create a calm, attentive space where clients can talk through worries and try new ways of coping. She uses a mix of client-centered methods and evidence-informed tools.

That means listening first, then offering techniques that fit the person’s goals. Cognitive behavioral techniques may be used to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Solution-focused ideas help set small, achievable goals between sessions.

Laura also works with issues that can come with aging, blended families, caregiving stress, workplace strain, and end-of-life concerns. She can help with communication problems and navigating forgiveness when relationships feel damaged. Her style is warm and practical, aimed at steady progress over time.

New clients are guided through a clear first step to begin care. Laura adjusts the pace to match each person’s comfort and circumstances, helping them build skills and regain confidence.

Online support

Using client-centered and practical approaches online

Laura combines client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral and solution-focused tools. Client-Centered Therapy starts by listening closely to what matters to the client and shaping sessions around their priorities. This approach helps people feel heard and keeps work focused on real-life concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches specific skills to change unhelpful patterns. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and problems with focus or behavior. Solution-Focused Therapy targets small, achievable goals and builds on strengths to create steady forward movement in daily life.

Choosing an approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, try approaches that fit, and adjust as needed. That collaborative process helps find the best mix of listening, skill-building, and goal work for each person.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make brief check-ins and step-by-step coaching easier between meetings. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and make consistent care more accessible.
