About Laura
Laura Hunter is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 25 years of professional experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem challenges, and ADHD.
Background and approach
She focuses on creating an open therapeutic atmosphere where clients can explore thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment, and she supports them in taking the often-difficult first steps toward greater well-being. With a practice rooted in long-term clinical work in California, Laura emphasizes collaboration and practical progress.
She addresses communication problems, guilt, and shame alongside broader emotional and interpersonal goals, tailoring conversations and strategies to each person’s situation. Her approach balances empathy with actionable guidance so clients can build confidence and motivation over time.
Clients can expect a calm, steady presence and a commitment to supporting change at a sustainable pace. Laura frames the work as a partnership, offering steady guidance while helping clients identify priorities and try approaches that fit their lives and values.
Evidence-Based Techniques and Online Care
Laura draws from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and emotional understanding. One approach emphasizes teaching coping and regulation strategies to manage anxiety and stress, helping clients identify triggers and practice techniques that reduce distress in daily life. Another approach centers on interpersonal skills and communication work to address relationship and intimacy-related concerns, offering ways to improve listening, express needs, and resolve conflicts more effectively.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and is decided collaboratively. The therapist will work with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, then adapt methods and pace so the work fits the client’s life. This collaborative planning helps ensure that techniques feel relevant and achievable rather than prescriptive.
Online therapy offers flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule. These formats support ongoing momentum between meetings and allow licensed professionals to provide consistent guidance without requiring travel, which can make pursuing therapy more accessible for many people.
