About Laura
Laura Geiger is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Washington with 22 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, and relationship strain, and she also supports people facing depression, ADHD, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting challenges, and career concerns.
Laura uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. She leans on cognitive-behavioral ideas to help people notice thought patterns and test small behavior changes. She describes her style as client-centered, which means she listens first and then helps people find steps that make sense for their life.
Attachment-based ideas inform her work when relationship wounds and family patterns matter. Narrative approaches help people tell their story and separate who they are from the problems they face. Mindfulness practices are used to teach simple skills for noticing strong feelings without getting swept away by them.
She has worked in community mental health and private practice settings. That background gives experience with both short-term problem solving and longer conversations about identity, family of origin, and recurring patterns. Laura also has experience supporting people around adoption, foster care, caregiver stress, and blended family issues.
Sessions focus on practical steps: clarifying what is most painful, testing small changes, and building everyday skills to manage reactions and communication. People who want clear, direct work on anger, impulsivity, control issues, or parenting strain may find this approach useful.
How Laura’s approaches translate to online sessions
Laura combines cognitive-behavioral methods and client-centered listening in her work. CBT involves noticing unhelpful thought patterns and trying small behavior experiments to see what changes. That approach helps with anger, anxiety, and impulsivity by giving practical tools to test in everyday life.She also draws on client-centered principles, which means sessions begin with listening and reflecting. This lets the therapist and client decide together which strategies to try next, whether that means brief skills practice or a longer look at family and attachment patterns.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the early work. She will collaborate with the client to pick methods that match the person’s goals, preferences, and the problems they want to change. That collaborative planning can shift as progress is made.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people practice skills between sessions in real-life settings and then talk through what happened with the therapist.
