About Laura
Laura France is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, parenting stress, and major life changes. Laura also helps with caregiver strain, communication problems, control issues, and feelings of guilt or shame.
She uses practical methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions focus on clear steps clients can try between meetings. That can mean identifying patterns that increase worry, practicing different ways of responding, and tracking what helps over time.
Laura pays particular attention to people who feel isolated or stuck. She supports efforts to rebuild self-regard and repair strained connections. Topics often include setting boundaries, improving communication, and working through forgiveness when that is important to the client.
Her approach aims to be straightforward and goal-oriented. Early sessions typically map the main problems and set short-term, testable goals. Later work reviews what strategies are working and adjusts plans when needed.
People who choose her work with someone who favors concrete tools and clear feedback. She balances structured techniques with conversation about personal values and goals. To begin, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session to discuss next steps.
How CBT and solution-focused work in online sessions
Laura commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going. CBT in practice means tracking when difficult thoughts appear, testing how accurate they are, and trying alternative responses to see what changes.She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to keep sessions action-oriented. That approach concentrates on small, concrete steps and what a person wants to be different soon, rather than focusing only on the past.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. From there she and the client decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is tracked.
Session format options are not listed in the biography, so confirm current session choices before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a workday or caregiving routine, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce the need to travel. The practical aim is to use methods that fit daily life and allow repeated practice between sessions.
