About Laura

Laura Fletcher is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with more than two decades of experience in healthcare and behavioral wellness. She greets people with a calm, practical style and offers coaching and counseling to help them move toward the life they want. Her background includes long-term work in health systems and oncology settings, which shaped her work with serious illness and caregiving stress.

She focuses on everyday struggles such as stress, anxiety, depression, and coping with big life changes. She also helps people managing grief, relationship challenges, parenting strain, and issues related to addiction or identity. Sessions aim to build on what already works while teaching simple tools for feeling steadier in daily life.

Laura uses a mix of approaches tailored to each person. That can include attachment-based ideas to improve connection, cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts and actions, and mindfulness to reduce reactivity. She also draws on EMDR for trauma-related work when it fits a person's needs.

Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. Clients can expect practical strategies, gentle challenge, and attention to values and goals. She often weaves coaching skills into therapy to support behavior change and wellbeing.

For people caring for ill or aging relatives, Laura brings specific experience with caregiver stress, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and chronic illness. She encourages realistic, step-by-step change and offers a space to talk through the emotional weight of caregiving.

How her approaches shape online therapy

Laura blends attachment-based ideas, client-centered work, and cognitive behavioral techniques in a way that fits online sessions. Attachment-based therapy focuses on patterns of relating and helps people improve connection and trust in important relationships. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and following the person's agenda so sessions feel tailored and respectful. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the early work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, past experiences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made so the work stays relevant and realistic.

Practical online benefits can include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy day. Online work can make it simpler to check in during a lunch break, avoid travel time, or continue therapy while managing caregiving responsibilities. If you want to confirm which session formats are offered, check the booking details before you schedule so you know how sessions will be delivered.
