About Laura
Laura Braswell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with three years of clinical experience. She combines clinical training and life experience to help people dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and anger. She also supports those facing parenting challenges, relationship struggles, adoption and fertility concerns, and major life changes.
Laura draws on practical talk therapy and structured methods to help people change patterns that cause distress. Sessions focus on clear goals, manageable steps, and techniques to reduce intense feelings. She uses straightforward discussion and evidence-informed tools rather than abstract theory alone.
Her background includes work across several clinical settings, plus group and individual counseling experience. That variety informs how she tailors sessions to common problems like sleep and eating issues, codependency, and communication breakdowns. She also brings an understanding of attachment and how early relationships shape current reactions.
In sessions she uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy alongside mindfulness and attachment-based ideas. These methods are used to address things like compulsive behaviors, intrusive thoughts, and recurring resentment. The focus is on building skills people can use in everyday life.
Laura emphasizes collaboration and practical progress. She encourages people to set realistic goals, track small wins, and adjust strategies when needed. If someone wants to work on anger, coping with stress, or rebuilding motivation, she aims to help them find clearer choices and steadier responses.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting driven by them. It focuses on values and small committed actions that rebuild a sense of purpose and reduce reactive behavior. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and reduce impulsive responses. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental dialog that helps people clarify goals and feel heard while they try new ways of responding.Choosing an approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they will try methods and adjust as needed until a workable mix of strategies is found.
Confirm the available session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific options. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when those are useful, and reduce travel time. It also makes it simpler to keep therapy going when schedules change, while the therapist and client focus on practical steps and skills that can be used between meetings.
