About
Laura Richardson, LMHC, is a Florida-licensed clinician with 20 years of professional experience. Her practice addresses a broad range of concerns including stress and anxiety, family and parenting matters, anger and emotion regulation, depression, addictions, relationship and attachment difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, self esteem, career concerns, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes. She also works with issues related to abandonment, adoption and foster care, blended families, caregiver stress, codependency, commitment and communication problems, divorce and separation, family of origin dynamics, and postpartum depression.
Her approach centers on placing the client in the driver seat of the therapeutic process. She uses client-centered methods to build an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is also employed to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to develop practical skills for managing daily challenges. Laura partners with clients as they take steps toward personal goals, offering collaborative support as individuals navigate transitions and seek clearer direction in their lives.
Remote therapy with client-led and CBT approaches
Laura Richardson combines a client-centered orientation with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in remote sessions. The client-centered element emphasizes collaboration and the client directing the pace and focus of work. That approach is intended for people who prefer to shape their own goals and to have a counselor who follows their lead while providing reflective support.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used alongside that collaborative stance to help identify patterns of thought and behavior related to stress, anxiety, mood concerns, anger, and relationship challenges. Through practical exercises and gentle experimentation, CBT techniques are introduced to help clients notice connections between thinking and feeling and to practice alternative responses.
Sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Those communication options allow clients to choose the format that best fits their schedule and comfort while working with the therapist to set goals and plan next steps.How much clinical experience does Laura have?
