About Laurie

Laurie Jones is a licensed marriage and family therapist practicing in Nevada. She has 25 years of experience helping people manage anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, and the stress that comes with big life changes. Laurie creates a calm, nonjudgmental setting where people can name what feels hard and decide what to change next.

She uses straightforward, empathetic listening to help people untangle relationship patterns and communication problems. Laurie helps with parenting strain, blended family issues, and intimacy-related concerns while also addressing body image, eating, and identity questions. She explicitly works with LGBTQ+ people and those in alternative sexual cultures, acknowledging those experiences in conversation.

Her work draws on practical methods from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to build new habits and shift unhelpful thinking. Attachment-based ideas guide conversations about closeness and abandonment, and dialectical behavior tools teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills.

Laurie aims for sessions that feel collaborative and goal-oriented. She mixes short-term coaching-style work with deeper therapy when needed. Many people come away with clearer communication skills, steadier moods, and a better sense of direction after exploring priorities together.

To begin, people follow the site process to match with a therapist and then schedule sessions based on availability. Fees vary with location and the service uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How Laurie’s approaches translate to online work

Laurie uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach often includes concrete exercises and homework to practice between sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on accepting difficult feelings while clarifying values and taking steps that matter, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people try new ways of relating.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Laurie will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide whether short-term skills work or deeper relational exploration is the better next step.

The therapist’s biography did not specify online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce commute time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use video or audio depending on comfort, or schedule sessions around work or parenting demands, which helps maintain consistency in care.
