About Laura

Laura Roland is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 22 years of clinical experience. She works with adults in individual sessions and lists concerns such as anxiety, ADHD, attachment trauma, relationship patterns, chronic pain, codependency, complex trauma, grief, and anger among others.

Her approach is straightforward and active. She uses tools like worksheets, homework, and weekly challenges to help people change habits that no longer serve them. Sessions move between practical skill-building and talking through how past patterns affect present relationships and reactions.

Laura draws on several therapeutic methods to guide her work. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, Dialectical Behavior Therapy for emotional regulation and distress tolerance, and EMDR when trauma processing is needed. Attachment-based ideas shape how she looks at relationship issues and long-standing patterns.

Clients who want clear steps and regular practice tend to find this style useful. The work can ask for effort and homework, so she looks for people ready to try new ways of coping and relating. Laura explains that change often happens by doing different things between sessions as well as in them.

She is based in Florida and conducts work in English. Practical matters such as cost and session subscription are handled through the site process, which uses a cancelable subscription model. Prospective clients begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session.

How sessions work

Clinical approaches used in online sessions

Laura uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice and change thought and behavior patterns that feed anger and anxiety. CBT is practical work focused on small experiments and new ways of thinking that change how someone reacts to stress.

She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for emotional regulation and coping under pressure. DBT teaches specific techniques for managing intense feelings, improving communication, and tolerating distress without making things worse. Attachment-based ideas guide how she looks at relationship patterns and recurring resentments, linking current difficulties to past relational experiences.

Choosing the right method is part of the work. The therapist discusses goals and preferences and helps decide which approach or combination will fit best. This is a collaborative process and can change as work progresses.

The biography lists individual sessions for adults; confirm the exact online session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find these practical benefits help them keep consistent with the work.
