About Laurel

Laurel Dietterle is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with six years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strains, family concerns, and self-esteem issues. She also focuses on problems like abandonment, attachment difficulties, codependency, and identity-related distress.

Laurel begins by listening to what brought someone to therapy and what they want to change. She and the client set practical goals and choose approaches that fit the person's situation. Sessions often include talking through communication habits, spotting patterns that keep problems going, and building more reliable ways of coping.

Her practice uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood and relationship difficulties. That can mean learning specific skills to manage intense emotions, testing different behaviors in relationships, or mapping how past experiences affect current reactions. Work may include concrete homework between sessions to practice new responses in daily life.

Laurel aims to keep sessions straightforward and focused on everyday struggles like work stress, parenting demands, finances, and health worries. She pays attention to how identity and past losses shape current feelings of emptiness, guilt, or shame. Conversations explore communication, commitment concerns, and control issues in practical terms.

People who meet with her are guided through small, step-by-step changes. She helps people develop tools for handling crises and for steadying mood over time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session.

BHow sessions work

How Laurel uses evidence-based approaches online

Laurel draws on practical, evidence-based methods to address mood and relationship problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers concrete skills for handling strong emotions and improving stability in daily life. Internal Family Systems helps map different parts of a person’s inner life and how they influence behavior, which can help with patterns like avoidance, codependency, and feelings of emptiness.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work and is decided together. Laurel reviews what has helped before, what goals feel most urgent, and what fits a person’s schedule and preferences. She adapts the plan over time as clients try techniques and report what works. Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking, since specific formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy routines, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some people prefer video for face-to-face interaction, while others choose phone for lower bandwidth or to keep sessions brief during a workday. Laurel aims to make therapy fit daily life through collaborative planning and practical tools.
