About Laurie
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with five years of experience, Laurie Laman focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, anger, addictions, relationship and family concerns, grief, eating issues, and parenting. Laurie sees people in Dallas-area settings and has worked in academic and clinical environments. She offers sessions in English and does not accept international clients.
Laurie uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Existential Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. In practice she favors a collaborative approach where the person and therapist set goals together. That means talking through immediate problems, trying clearer ways of thinking and coping, and practicing skills for calmer responses.
Her background includes five years of direct counseling experience with children, adolescents, and adults. She has experience supporting at-risk youth and has worked on issues related to motivation, school and social functioning, and behavioral concerns. That experience informs short-term problem work and longer skill-building efforts.
Typical work involves identifying what is causing stress or low mood, then developing concrete strategies to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning. CBT techniques are used to challenge unhelpful thinking and build alternative habits. DBT skills are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are priorities.
Laurie also addresses eating and substance-related issues and family of origin concerns. If scheduling or session format is important to you, confirm current session options before booking and follow the site steps to select a first appointment.

How Laurie applies common approaches online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's perspective and priorities. The therapist listens, reflects, and helps the person name goals and next steps. This approach is useful when someone needs a steady, collaborative place to talk through problems and set practical goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and acting. It suits mood problems, anxiety, and patterns that get in the way of daily routines. DBT adds concrete skills for regulating strong emotions and tolerating distress, which can help when anger or intense upset is a concern.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help figure out which methods fit a person's goals and preferences. Decisions about techniques and session focus are made together and can shift as progress is made.
Please confirm the current session formats with the therapist before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, shorten travel time, or allow a quicker check-in when days are tight. Licensed professionals often use online work to focus on skill practice, thought patterns, and planning between sessions rather than only on in-person scheduling.
