About Laura

Laura Hall is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 11 years of experience in mental health. She earned a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Henderson State University. Laura has worked in schools, community mental health centers, hospitals, and private practice settings. She aims to listen, understand, and support people where they are so daily life can feel more manageable.

Laura focuses on practical, goal-oriented work. She uses clear examples to make ideas useful in everyday life. She helps people address stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship and family strains, grief, trauma, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Codependency and attachment concerns are also part of her focus areas.

Her approach draws on Client-Centered therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and Solution-Focused methods. Sessions emphasize realistic goals tied to a person’s values and routine. She describes herself as open-minded and down-to-earth, and she respects different cultures and life paths.

Laura shifted into technology-assisted counseling during the COVID-19 outbreak to reach people who could not get help in traditional settings. She is known for creating a welcoming space and for responding to messages at least twice a day. She encourages clients to use therapy time to confront goals and try practical steps between sessions.

For scheduling, Laura is mostly available for live chat and offers some live phone or video sessions on alternating weekends. Clients choose times through the Start Therapy process and can check when weekend video or phone slots are offered.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Laura uses Client-Centered therapy to create a respectful, listening environment where clients set the pace and goals. This approach helps when someone needs acceptance and clear, personal direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thinking and try concrete behavior changes; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Laura will talk with each client about goals, needs, and preferences. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Laura developed a specialization in technology-assisted counseling after COVID-19 to reach people who could not use traditional settings. She is mostly available for live chat and offers some live phone or video sessions on alternating weekends; confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so sessions are simpler to schedule.
