About George

George Laub is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Utah who focuses on family concerns, trauma, grief, anger, and self-esteem. He speaks English and uses practical methods to help people cope with hard changes. He keeps sessions straightforward and aims to make therapy feel manageable for busy parents and caregivers.

Laub has three years of clinical experience and works with children, teens, and adults, adjusting his approach to each person’s age and situation.

Background and approach

He emphasizes strength-based work, helping clients notice what already helps them and build on those abilities. In sessions he guides conversations, offers tools for emotion regulation, and helps clients repair everyday relationships. For trauma and loss, he uses evidence-based techniques to walk clients through painful memories at a steady pace.

He also addresses issues like attachment concerns, communication problems, control issues, and young adult challenges. Practical skills for handling anger, shame, eating-related struggles, and questions of life purpose are part of his routine work. Therapy with Laub can occur via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging so families can choose what fits their schedule.

Cost varies by location and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not currently accepted. To start, users select the Start Therapy button, fill a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule based on the therapist’s availability.

This process helps match needs and preferences before the first meeting.

Evidence-based approaches for online family and trauma work

Laub uses evidence-based techniques that break big problems into manageable steps. One approach focuses on trauma-informed techniques that help people process painful memories gradually while teaching coping skills for stress and strong emotions. This work is useful for people dealing with abuse, post-traumatic stress, or major losses.

He also emphasizes a strengths-based approach that helps clients identify what already works for them and build practical routines. This method targets issues like anger, low self-esteem, control struggles, and communication problems by teaching concrete skills families and individuals can use at home.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels doable, then adjust techniques as needed. Clients and the therapist decide together which methods fit best and how quickly to move through them.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for parents and caregivers. These options let families choose what fits their schedules and comfort levels, and make it easier to keep consistent appointments when life is busy.
