About Laurie
Laurie Speed is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 14 years of clinical work helping people through major life challenges. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and coping with life changes.
Laurie uses methods drawn from client-centered therapy, emotionally-focused therapy, narrative approaches, and psychodynamic ideas. Sessions emphasize listening, identifying patterns, and naming the feelings that get in the way of daily life. She often concentrates on communication skills, reducing isolation, and working through guilt and shame.
Many people come to her for support after a separation or during caregiver strain. She also helps those wrestling with forgiveness and building self-love. Conversations tend to be practical and grounded, with room to look at past experiences that shape current reactions.
Her approach balances present-day problem solving with attention to emotional experience. That can mean slowing down to understand a relationship pattern or trying small changes to reduce anxiety. Laurie encourages clients to notice small shifts and to practice new ways of relating to themselves and others.
Sessions are conducted in English and follow the LPC scope of practice in Texas. To begin, prospective clients follow the site’s matching steps and schedule a first appointment. Costs vary with location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what a person says. In online sessions this means the therapist mirrors concerns and helps clients find their own solutions, which is useful for stress, anxiety, and relationship issues.Emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) looks at how feelings shape bonds and reactions. In remote sessions, the work centers on naming emotions and learning different ways to respond, which can help with grief, attachment wounds, and communication problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Laurie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice is revisited as needs change and progress is reviewed together.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, let people check in from a convenient location, and allow sessions that are shorter or timed to a work break when needed. Ask about format options when you complete the matching questionnaire.
