Approaches That Guide Online Care

Laurie White integrates Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early connection patterns influence current relationships and emotional responses; this approach can help people working through attachment issues, abandonment concerns, and relational patterns. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration so clients feel heard and set the pace for their growth; this method supports those facing life changes, grief, or low self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is part of her toolkit as well, offering practical techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that contribute to anxiety, depression, or stress.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Laurie collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts strategies over time so care remains aligned with what feels most helpful and sustainable.

Online therapy with Laurie is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options allow people to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and engage in therapy from familiar environments while working with a licensed professional.
