About Laura
Laura Roland is a licensed professional counselor who uses straightforward, practical therapy. She is an LPC and a licensed mental health counselor, and she draws on 22 years of experience to help people address ongoing stress and anxiety. Laura speaks English and sees clients based in Florida.
Her sessions are direct and supportive. She offers clear tools like worksheets and weekly challenges to help people practice between meetings. Laura emphasizes steady progress over quick fixes.
Background and approach
She often focuses on relationship and family-related patterns, attachment concerns, and trauma and abuse. She also helps with grief, self-esteem, intimacy-related struggles, anger, career transitions, bipolar concerns, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Her work includes attention to chronic pain, caregiver stress, codependency, and communication problems.
Laura combines approaches such as attachment-based work, client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and EMDR when appropriate. Sessions are practical and skills-oriented, and clinicians will suggest homework to reinforce new habits. Her practice offers several online formats, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
Costs vary with location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a person selects Start Therapy, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules based on therapist availability.
Therapeutic approaches and how they translate to online care
Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current connections. Online sessions can help identify these patterns and practice new ways of relating in everyday life. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on clear, structured steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It works well for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes by teaching practical skills and homework that translate easily to online formats.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Laura will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best based on individual needs and goals. That conversation guides whether more skill-building work, emotion-focused work, or trauma-focused techniques are used.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, maintain momentum between sessions with messages or worksheets, and keep progress moving forward even when in-person meetings are not possible. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to each format so therapeutic work continues effectively.
Attachment-Based Therapy
Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
