About Laura
Laura Geiger is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Washington. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, ADHD, trauma and codependency concerns. Her approach is down-to-earth and practical, aimed at helping people manage day-to-day struggles and make steady changes.
She brings 22 years of experience to her work and trained at Antioch University Seattle, completing her degree in 2003. Much of her early practice focused on youth and adolescents in community mental health and private practice settings. That background shapes how she thinks about the systems around a person and the stress those systems can create.
Laura uses a client-centered stance, which means she listens first and follows the pace a person sets. She pairs that with cognitive behavioral ideas to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. She also draws on attachment-based and narrative ideas to look at relationship patterns and life stories that shape how people cope.
Sessions are practical and conversational. Clients can expect to talk through current problems, try small changes between meetings, and reflect on how past relationships affect present choices. She also integrates mindfulness tools to help with overwhelming emotions and impulsivity.
People who choose Laura often want focused support for things like codependency, family of origin issues, caregiver stress, and coping with life changes. To start, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability.
How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Laura blends client-centered care with cognitive behavioral and attachment-based ideas. Client-centered work focuses on listening and following the person's goals, helping them set the pace for change. Cognitive behavioral techniques look at patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going and offer concrete tools to try between sessions. Attachment-based ideas help people see how early relationships influence current trust, boundaries, and communication patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit. That collaborative process helps shape which tools and exercises are used over time.

It can also let people practice mindfulness or homework tasks in their usual routines.
