About Laurie
LCSW licensed in North Carolina with 15 years of clinical experience, Laurie Kaufmann helps people who are managing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting concerns, and low self-esteem. She works directly with issues like codependency, communication problems, isolation, and questions about life purpose and self-love. Laurie uses clear, practical methods drawn from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and solution-focused steps.
Laurie approaches sessions by treating the client as the expert on their own life. She listens for strengths and then helps people apply those strengths to everyday challenges. Sessions focus on concrete changes - skills for managing mood, short-term plans for problem areas, and simple mindfulness practices to reduce worry.
She uses cognitive behavioral tools to help spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns. That can look like identifying a recurring thought, testing how true it feels, and trying small behavior experiments to see what shifts. Solution-focused methods are used when quick, actionable steps are helpful, such as setting one achievable goal between sessions.
Mindfulness practices are offered as short exercises to calm the body and steady attention. Laurie keeps these practices brief and practical so they fit into a busy day. She also supports people who are coping with grief by helping them process loss at a pace that feels manageable.
Clients can expect direct, plainspoken guidance and a focus on doable strategies. Laurie encourages people to try small changes and notice what helps. To begin, follow the site’s sign-up flow and schedule an initial session.

How Laurie Uses CBT, Mindfulness, and Client-Centered Work Online
Lauriе uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help identify repeating thoughts and try small behavioral experiments. CBT in an online setting can look like homework between sessions, tracking moods, and testing new responses to common triggers. Mindfulness therapy is offered as brief, practical exercises to steady attention and reduce worry. These practices are simple to try in short daily moments and can be adapted to fit a person’s routine. Client-Centered Therapy means the therapist follows the person’s priorities and builds on their strengths. Online sessions focus on listening, reflecting, and helping clients decide which steps feel most useful. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Laurie will collaborate with each person to determine whether CBT tasks, mindfulness exercises, or a client-led pace best match their needs and goals. This decision is reviewed over the first few sessions and can change as progress is made. Session logistics and formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online care can help fit therapy into a busy life - for example, shorter check-ins can be scheduled during a midday break, and some session styles reduce the need for camera use. These practical features make it easier to try strategies without rearranging a full day.Sheet 3
