About
About Laurie
Laurie Laman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with five years of experience. She works with adults who face stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and challenges around relationships and family. Sessions focus on practical skills and clear goals rather than labels.
Laurie uses a mix of approaches to help people change patterns that cause frustration. She draws on client-centered methods to keep conversations focused on what matters to the person. She also uses cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thinking and build different reactions to triggering situations.
When anger gets in the way of work or home life she helps people notice the build-up and practice new responses. For issues such as addictions, eating concerns, or family-of-origin problems she combines motivational techniques and mindfulness to strengthen decision-making and reduce impulsive reactions. The work tends to be concrete - learning a skill, trying it between sessions, and checking what changed.
Laurie has experience in academic and clinical settings, including work with at-risk youth, which shaped her focus on skills and structure. She prefers setting clear goals and tracking progress over time. That approach can help when stress, grief, or low self-esteem make it hard to move forward.
Sessions are conducted in English and are framed around realistic steps people can use in daily life. To start, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first meeting that explores goals and next steps.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Client-centered therapy focuses on conversations that reflect the client's priorities. The therapist listens, asks clarifying questions, and helps the client identify what matters most and which small steps to try. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical techniques to shift unhelpful patterns. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose approaches that match a person's goals, needs, and preferences. That can mean trying one technique for a few sessions, checking what changes, and adapting the plan together.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking, because the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when life is hectic, or let someone avoid travel time. The focus remains on learning skills you can use between sessions and bringing those skills back to daily life.
