About Laura

Florida LMHC with 10 years of experience, Laura Boettger helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and big life changes. She works with adults who are processing involvement in high-control groups or relationships and with people coping with transitions or trauma-related symptoms. Sessions focus on understanding what happened and building practical ways to feel steadier day to day.

Laura uses a range of methods from non-directive conversation to structured skills work. She describes her approach as flexible and draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Narrative Therapy. She is a Florida licensed mental health counselor - LMHC.

In practice she helps people untangle confusing or painful experiences. That can mean processing symptoms of post-traumatic stress, addressing dissociation, or working through feelings of shame, abandonment, or isolation. She also supports questions about life purpose and changes that leave someone feeling adrift.

Sessions often include talk-based reflection, skills coaching, and trauma-focused interventions when appropriate. EMDR is one of the techniques she uses alongside narrative work to make sense of painful memories. DBT-informed skills are used to stabilize intense emotions and reduce impulsive reactions.

Her stated style is collaborative: she and the client decide how directive or open-ended sessions should be. People can expect pragmatic steps and emotional processing tailored to their concerns. For booking, clients follow the platform matching and scheduling flow described below.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions using this approach look at connection needs, boundaries, and repeating relationship dynamics to help reduce relational distress.

EMDR is a trauma-focused method that processes disturbing memories to reduce their emotional intensity. In remote sessions EMDR elements are adapted to talk-based formats and guided bilateral stimulation when appropriate to the client's situation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose whether to emphasize attachment work, EMDR, DBT skills, or narrative exploration based on goals and preferences. That decision can change over time as needs evolve.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which options are currently offered before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent traveling. Therapists can also use video or phone sessions to match a client's comfort with being on camera or with internet bandwidth. These practical choices can help therapy fit into everyday life.
