About Laurie
Laurie Ormerod is a licensed professional counselor in Oklahoma who focuses on family and parenting concerns and personal growth. She uses a faith-informed lens when appropriate and guides people through life changes with practical support.

She brings 12 years of counseling experience to sessions and speaks English. Laurie works with trauma, self-esteem struggles, grief, and workplace relationship problems.
Background and approach
She also supports people dealing with anxiety, stress, addictions, bipolar disorder, and depression. Her additional focus areas include abandonment, codependency, forgiveness, self-love, and women’s issues. Sessions emphasize exploring values and practical next steps rather than abstract theory.
In practice she talks through patterns that keep people stuck and helps develop new skills to handle hard moments. Parents and families can expect a down-to-earth approach that looks at daily routines and communication. Laurie blends compassionate listening with coaching to identify small, concrete changes that build momentum.
She offers a faith-informed perspective when clients want that included, and she respects different beliefs when it is not a focus. Laurie describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client’s goals shape each session. Her style aims for steady progress over time.
Background and approach: Laurie trained and practiced in Oklahoma and holds the LPC credential, Licensed Professional Counselor. With a dozen years of experience she integrates clinical knowledge with practical life coaching. The work often involves addressing trauma, repairing relationship patterns, and supporting people through major life transitions.
Approaches that guide online family and life work
Laurie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that aim for clear, practical change. One common approach focuses on processing trauma in manageable steps so people can reduce its hold on daily life and relationships. This helps when past hurt interferes with parenting, intimacy, or work. Another approach centers on skills-based coaching for stress, anxiety, and self-esteem. That involves teaching specific tools for emotional regulation, communication, and problem solving so clients can handle hard moments with more confidence. These methods suit people navigating life transitions or relationship challenges. Finding the right approach happens collaboratively. Laurie works with clients to identify goals, values, and what feels most helpful. Together they choose techniques and adjust them over time to match progress and preferences. Online therapy offers flexibility for people balancing family, work, and appointments. Sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. This range makes it easier to maintain continuity of care and to practice new skills between sessions.Frequently asked questions
