About Laurie
Laurie Kaufmann is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in North Carolina with 15 years of experience. She works with people who are managing stress, anxiety, depression, grief and parenting concerns. She also addresses problems with self-esteem, motivation, and confidence.
Laurie uses straightforward, person-focused methods in sessions. She treats clients as the experts on their own stories and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions typically involve talking through what is happening now, identifying small steps that help, and checking how those changes feel in daily life.
Her clinical approaches include client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and solution-focused strategies. That mix lets her shift between focusing on thoughts and behaviors, strengthening present coping skills, and using mindful attention to reduce reactivity. Practical exercises and short at-home activities are common between meetings.
People who come for help with parenting or grief often get concrete tools to use right away. Those coping with low self-worth or codependency work on clearer boundaries and small confidence-building choices. For mood and anxiety concerns she blends cognitive work with calming, present-moment techniques.
Laurie aims to make therapy something that fits into everyday life. She helps clarify goals and tracks progress in simple ways. To begin, prospective clients follow the site process to complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial meeting.
BHow sessions work
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client. It helps people clarify priorities and identify their own solutions through open conversation and practical feedback. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and actions and uses brief exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, low mood, and worry.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as progress is tracked and new challenges arise.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example by saving travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or letting someone join without being on camera if they prefer. Those practical benefits help therapy stay consistent alongside work, family, and health responsibilities.
