About Laura
Laura Braswell is an LCSW based in Florida who brings three years of clinical experience to her counseling work. She combines practical life experience with counseling skills to help people facing depression, anxiety, addiction, grief, and struggles with purpose. Laura speaks English and accepts international clients.
Her approach mixes evidence-informed therapies with a warm, direct style. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside attachment-focused and client-centered methods. Sessions often focus on concrete steps - breaking unhelpful habits, building routines for sleep and eating, or practicing communication skills.
Laura has worked in a range of clinical settings and led both individual and group work. She also has a background in pastoral counseling through a Master of Divinity, which shapes how she talks about meaning, values, and motivation. That lived experience and life stage inform how she connects with people dealing with parenting, adoption and foster care questions, fertility concerns, and relationship strain.
People come to her for help with family-related stress, trauma and abuse, intimacy or commitment issues, ADHD, bipolar or mood concerns, and recovery from substance problems. She also supports those coping with loss, compassion fatigue, and career-related burnout.
Therapy with Laura typically aims to set manageable goals and build everyday skills. She encourages small, steady changes that add up over time. To begin, clients use the site’s Start Therapy process to match and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.
Therapeutic approaches and finding the right fit online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps you clarify what matters to you and take actions that match those values even when feelings are hard. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and building a clearer sense of purpose. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can support sleep, eating habits, mood, and coping with addiction or anger. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relationship patterns and how early connections affect current relationship and intimacy struggles, helping with communication and closeness issues.Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will work with each person to pick methods that match their goals and preferences. Together they set small steps and adjust techniques over time so the work stays relevant and doable.
The therapist’s biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, they can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a break, or let someone join from a quieter spot when needed. Licensed professionals can use these approaches effectively at a distance by focusing on skill practice, values-based planning, and communication exercises that translate well across sessions.
