Focus areas and approaches

Everything Laurie lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Online support

Approaches that calm strong emotions and guide change

Laurie uses several evidence-based techniques in online sessions that focus on calming intense feelings and improving everyday coping. Tapping/EFT is a technique that pairs mindful attention with gentle tapping to help reduce the intensity of strong memories or present stress. It is often used when people feel flooded by emotions and need a way to bring immediate relief.

She also incorporates centering and meditative practices to support emotion regulation and present-moment awareness. These practices help people notice their automatic reactions and choose different responses during conflict or when facing painful memories.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try techniques that fit the person’s needs, and adjust methods as progress is made. This collaborative process helps match methods to the client’s comfort level and the problems they want to address.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy schedules or mobility limits. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and nonverbal cues, phone sessions can be quicker check-ins or an easier option when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging work well for shorter check-ins and ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to keep momentum and practice skills between meetings.
