Therapeutic approaches and online care with Laurie Tucker

Laurie Tucker draws on client-centered therapy to place the person’s experience and goals at the heart of sessions. This approach emphasizes listening, empathy, and building a trusting therapeutic relationship so people feel heard as they explore change.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT can be useful for managing anxiety, improving mood, and developing coping skills for everyday challenges.

For clients affected by trauma, Laurie incorporates trauma-focused techniques that attend to the ways past experiences influence current feelings and reactions. These methods aim to reduce the impact of traumatic memories and support recovery at a pace that respects each person’s readiness.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Laurie works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit best based on needs, goals, and preferences. Licensed professionals and therapists often blend strategies, and Laurie tailors care with that same flexibility.

Online therapy offers practical benefits: it enables sessions by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to schedule appointments, maintain consistency during life transitions, and access support from different locations. This flexibility helps people incorporate therapy into busy lives while working toward their goals.
