Laura Gannon , LCSW

Laura Gannon is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with 14 years of professional experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety, address addictions, work through family conflicts, and build motivation, self esteem, and confidence. She also has experience supporting clients who are coping with depression. Laura approaches each person with respect and an emphasis on collaboration, guiding clients toward practical steps that support healthier coping and clearer decision making.

She aims to create an open and nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be expressed honestly. Recognizing that seeking change takes courage, Laura offers steady support and encouragement as clients take initial steps and pursue longer term goals. Her background as an LCSW means she integrates clinical training in social work with hands-on experience to address emotional, relational, and behavioral concerns in a way that fits each individualâs circumstances and priorities.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Laura Gannon integrates client-centered therapy to place the client's experience and goals at the center of the work. This approach emphasizes empathy and active listening so the person feels heard while exploring values, priorities, and personal strengths. It is useful for people seeking a supportive, collaborative environment to make meaningful changes.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts and patterns that contribute to stress, anxiety, and mood concerns. CBT offers practical tools and exercises for managing symptoms and improving daily functioning.

Motivational Interviewing is another approach Laura draws on when clients are facing ambivalence about change, such as with addictions or behavior shifts. This method focuses on exploring personal motivation and building commitment in a respectful, nonconfrontational way.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Laura works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors the plan as progress is made so the work remains aligned with what matters most to the client.

Online therapy with Laura is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life and to maintain continuity of care when in-person sessions are not feasible, while still allowing meaningful, structured therapeutic work with a licensed professional.
