Online support

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Laurie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on emotion processing and practical coping skills. One common approach helps people identify and name intense feelings, then practice small steps to respond differently; this is useful for grief and guilt where emotions can feel overwhelming. Another approach emphasizes skill-building for stress and compassion fatigue, teaching pacing, self-care actions, and simple routines to reduce burnout.

Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. Laurie works with clients to figure out which techniques match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into daily life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth or cameras are limited. Live chat and text messaging offer shorter check-ins or ongoing written support between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or travel while keeping therapy accessible.
