About Laura

Laura Hazard is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people manage the everyday overwhelm of life. She writes plainly and meets people where they are, breaking big problems into smaller, workable steps. Laura centers clients' goals and practical strengths in conversations and plans.

She draws on six years as an LPC and an earlier background as a behaviorist to shape straightforward strategies. Cognitive behavior approaches are used to notice patterns and try small changes that can make daily life easier. She also uses client-centered listening to follow what matters most to each person.

Laura has experience supporting people through major life transitions and crises. That includes stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strain, compassion fatigue, addiction-related concerns, sleep problems, anger, and depression. She also helps with career strain, self-esteem, and challenges that come with aging and caregiving.

Her work includes attention to personality-related concerns and complex relationship issues like communication, codependency, blended family dynamics, and commitment worries. Laura also supports people dealing with trauma, abuse, and intimacy-related questions, including kink and BDSM topics when they arise.

Sessions are practical and paced to the person’s needs. Conversations focus on what is useful now and next steps that fit everyday life. To begin, a simple matching process and scheduling step connect someone with the therapist.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care

Laura draws on client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy to shape online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following what matters most to the person, which helps set priorities and goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors to find small experiments and practical steps that can reduce anxiety, low mood, and overwhelm.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Laura will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most useful based on goals and preferences. That means trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting as needed together.

Confirm the current session formats before booking, as the profile does not list specific online arrangements. Many people find online options make it easier to schedule sessions around work or caregiving, reduce travel time, and fit brief check-ins into a busy day. If a quieter or shorter session would help on certain days, that can be discussed when arranging appointments.
