About Laura
Laura Lekocevic is a licensed clinical social worker in New Jersey with 14 years of practice. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. Laura speaks English and Spanish and aims to make the first step toward change feel manageable and clear.
She uses a straightforward, person-centered way of working. Sessions begin by listening closely to what matters most to the individual. From there Laura helps people set realistic goals and tries different ways to reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day functioning.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are woven into many sessions to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Mindfulness practices are offered to build calm and attention to the present moment. When trauma is involved, the work moves at a pace the person can tolerate and focuses on safety and coping skills.
Laura often helps people with caregiver stress, communication problems, control issues, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. She also supports those dealing with family conflict, immigration stress, guilt, or relationship breaches like infidelity. The approach is practical and goal-oriented, while remaining warm and nonjudgmental.
People can expect clear steps, homework when useful, and a steady focus on what improves daily life. Laura aims to create a setting where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. She supports each person through the process of finding more balance and meaning.

Online support
Approaches to healing online with practical tools
Laura blends client-centered work with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people who feel stuck by stress, anxiety, relationship problems, or depression. Client-Centered Therapy means conversations focus on what matters to the person and respect their pace; it helps build trust and lets people explore feelings without judgment. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and offers simple experiments and homework to test new ways of coping.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Laura will discuss goals, preferences, and life demands and then recommend options. That collaboration helps decide whether more CBT-style work, mindfulness practices, or trauma-focused pacing will be most useful for each person.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can be helpful when bandwidth or camera time is limited. Live chat and texting work well for brief check-ins, tracking progress, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options aim to increase flexibility and keep continuity of care while working toward concrete changes.
