About Laura
Laura Jowly is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with 20 years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, self-esteem, and depression and works with people who want practical strategies to manage these problems.
She helps people sort out their immediate priorities and cope with strong emotions. Sessions focus on clear goals, steady problem solving, and learning small skills that can be used between meetings. Laura aims to keep conversations direct and grounded so clients leave with concrete next steps.
Her work also addresses relationship and life stresses that feed into worry and low mood. Topics she often helps people navigate include abandonment, communication problems, control issues, and separation or divorce. She also supports clients dealing with guilt, shame, impulsivity, mood instability, panic attacks, and post-traumatic stress.
Sessions look at how daily routines, thinking patterns, and habits affect mood and behavior. Laura uses approaches supported by research to help clients change unhelpful patterns and build more reliable coping skills. The emphasis is on what can be changed now, not on abstract theories.
People who choose her tend to want straightforward guidance, clear tools, and practical ways to handle pressure from work, family, money, and health. She conducts sessions in English in New York and asks prospective clients to confirm current session options before scheduling.
BHow sessions work
How evidence-based approaches are used in online sessions
Two commonly used evidence-based techniques are skills-focused behavioral work and structured problem solving. Skills-focused behavioral work breaks large problems into small, practical steps and builds routines and habits that reduce anxiety and low mood. Structured problem solving helps identify immediate problems, set manageable goals, and test what works in daily life.Another approach often used is emotion-focused coaching that teaches ways to notice, name, and tolerate strong feelings so they interfere less with decisions and relationships. This can help with grief, panic, impulsivity, and shame-related issues.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively with the client to decide which techniques match the client's needs, goals, and preferences. Adjustments happen over time based on what is helpful.
The original profile does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Many people appreciate remote sessions because they can fit meetings into work breaks, reduce commuting time, or use a shorter check-in when life is busy. If you want to match practical scheduling with a research-backed approach, discuss format and timing during the initial scheduling step.
