About Laura

Laura Frelich is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 19 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting and family problems, and anger. She also addresses addictions, grief, self-esteem, career pressures, bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, and issues related to LGBT clients and women27s concerns.

She uses straightforward conversation to help people notice patterns that feed anger and frustration. Sessions focus on understanding what leads to snapping, bottled-up resentment, or trouble at work. She encourages clear communication and practical steps you can try between appointments.

Laura blends a client-centered stance with cognitive behavioral tools. That means she listens for what matters to the person and then uses exercises to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Homework or behavior experiments may be suggested to test new ways of responding to stressful moments.

Her background across different settings gave her experience with addiction and family problems. She draws on that work when addressing anger linked to substance use, ongoing family conflict, or long-standing stress. The writing of goals is concrete and usually focused on daily life changes rather than abstract theories.

Sessions are phrased as collaborative problem-solving. People leave with clear ideas to try between meetings and steps to reduce reactive patterns. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and moving at the client27s pace. In practice this means sessions begin with the person27s immediate concerns and the therapist reflects what she hears to help clarify feelings and goals. It helps when anger comes from relationships, role strain, or parenting stresses.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep anger active and testing small changes. Techniques might include thought records, behavior experiments, and practical skills for managing intense moments. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and anger-related patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will listen to your goals and try different tools to see what fits. That process is collaborative and aimed at finding straightforward strategies that make sense for your life and schedule.

Session formats are not detailed in the original biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful for fitting therapy into workdays, managing a shorter check-in on busy days, or avoiding travel time. Therapists and licensed professionals can use these sessions to practice communication skills, run behavioral experiments, and follow up on agreed steps between meetings.
