About Laura
Laura Nagy is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with three decades of experience in mental health. She practices from a client-centered stance and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, sleep trouble, and relationship strains. Laura aims to support each person in setting their own goals and building practical tools to move forward.
She earned a Masters in Agency Counseling and has worked in the field since 1995. Over the years Laura has provided crisis counseling and assisted people facing depression, obsessive-compulsive concerns, and PTSD. She has also worked with people who have struggled with suicidal thoughts and with those navigating addiction and bipolar-related challenges.
Her approach blends client-centered care with solution-focused techniques. Sessions often include homework tasks to use between meetings, so progress continues outside of the office. Laura emphasizes a strengths-based perspective, noticing the effort it took to seek help and building on existing supports.
Laura has experience addressing parenting stress, family problems, blended family concerns, abandonment issues, and caregiver strain. She also helps clients tackle communication problems, commitment questions, career pressures, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
She has practiced equine-assisted therapy in addition to more traditional methods. People who work with her can expect practical suggestions, clear goals, and collaborative planning to help them regain a greater sense of balance and wellbeing.
Approaches that guide online work and goal setting
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client's goals. The therapist offers support, reflection, and help in naming priorities so the client drives the direction of work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, behaviors, and feelings and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep disturbances, and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit best for their problems, goals, and day-to-day life. That collaboration can include trying a strategy for a few sessions and adjusting as needed based on what helps.
Please confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online work can make scheduling easier and help fit therapy into busy days. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a break, and let people use tools and worksheets between sessions to keep progress moving.
