01About Laura
Laura Aiken is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on helping people break unhelpful cycles. She listens without judgment and helps people take small steps when anxiety, depression, or stress feel overwhelming. Her style aims to make change feel manageable and realistic for everyday life.
She draws from several approaches to tailor each session to the person in front of her. Sessions may include skills practice from dialectical behavior therapy, written or spoken storytelling techniques, and slowing down with mindfulness exercises.
Background and approach
The goal is to find practical tools that fit a person's routines and values. Her background includes work related to addiction, including collaboration with drug courts and a recovery home. That experience shapes how she supports people facing shame, guilt, or relapse concerns.
It also informs her work with issues like chronic pain, caregiver stress, and impulsivity. Laura pays attention to patterns that come from attachment and abandonment wounds and helps people repair their sense of self and relationships. She also addresses life transitions such as divorce, midlife shifts, and questions about purpose.
Communication skills, setting limits, and managing control issues are common topics in sessions. Sessions are offered in English and provided remotely through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Laura has five years of professional experience and holds the LPC credential in Georgia.

How these approaches work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to a person. It helps people feel understood and guides conversations toward their own goals. Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, teaches practical skills for handling intense emotions, improving relationships, and reducing impulsive actions. Mindfulness therapy uses simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and help people notice patterns in their thoughts.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk about options, try techniques in session, and adjust based on what feels most useful. Goals, personal preferences, and daily routines help decide which methods to keep using.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make weekly work fit into busy lives. Video is useful for longer check-ins and skills practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging let people track progress between meetings and share updates in writing.
