About Laura
Laura Wiedlebacher is an Ohio LPCC with 26 years of professional experience working in mental health. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, and coping with life changes. Laura uses clear, practical methods to help people face difficult moments and make steady changes.
She starts by listening to what a person wants to change and what already helps them. Sessions emphasize identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of responding. She draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and mindfulness-based practices to give concrete tools people can use between meetings.
Clients often work on skills for managing panic, reducing worry, and improving communication. She also addresses issues such as abandonment, body image, guilt and shame, and isolation. When trauma is part of the story, she uses trauma-focused approaches to build safety and pacing into sessions.
Her style is straightforward and goal-oriented. Homework and small experiments between sessions are common so progress can be noticed in daily life. She also uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques to help clarify priorities and take manageable steps.
Laura practices in Ohio and holds the LPCC credential. Sessions are conducted in English. People who want to begin are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial appointment.
How CBT, DBT, and Mindfulness inform online work
Laura commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, behaviors, and feelings so concrete steps can be tried between sessions.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. DBT skills are useful for intense emotions and repeated patterns that cause conflict or impulsive actions.
Mindfulness therapy is applied as a simple way to build awareness of moment-to-moment experience and reduce reactivity. Short mindfulness exercises are used in session and as brief daily practices.
Choosing the best mix of these approaches is part of the work. The therapist discusses your goals and preferences, then suggests specific techniques to try. This is a collaborative process with adjustments over time based on what helps.
