See online therapy optionsAbout Laura
Laura Turner is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in South Carolina with six years of experience. She helps people who are managing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strains, self-esteem struggles, and life changes. Her work also addresses blended family issues, veteran and armed forces concerns, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, self-love, and young adult issues.
She uses clear, practical methods to notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions focus on identifying what is getting in the way and trying different ways of responding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a core part of her approach, with mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing added when useful.
Clients can expect a straightforward process that emphasizes small, testable changes. Laura helps people set specific goals and track progress week to week. She also draws on solution-focused techniques to generate manageable steps between sessions.
Her style is collaborative and goal-oriented. Laura asks questions, offers exercises, and reviews what worked or didn’t work in daily life. This keeps work practical and tied to real problems at home, work, or school.
She practices in South Carolina and sees people in English only. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.
How CBT, mindfulness, and focused methods work in online sessions
Laura uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify patterns of thought and behavior that worsen stress and anxiety. CBT sessions typically include tracking thoughts, testing beliefs with small experiments, and practicing new responses between meetings. Mindfulness Therapy is used to build simple attention skills and reduce reactivity through short breathing and awareness exercises that fit into daily life.She also draws on Motivational Interviewing to clarify what matters most to a person and to boost readiness for change. That approach focuses on the client's own reasons for change and small steps that match their values. Choosing which methods to use is a shared decision; the therapist will work with the client to see what fits their goals and preferences and will adjust the plan as progress is reviewed.
The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow for shorter check-ins when days are tight. It also makes it possible to practice skills in everyday settings and then bring observations back to the next session for review.
