About Laura
Laura Hank is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Pennsylvania with 15 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting, and ADHD. Sessions are conducted in English and she is not accepting international clients.
Her style is straightforward and practical. She listens without judgment and focuses on what feels most urgent. Expect sessions that concentrate on concrete skills, small changes, and steady progress rather than long, abstract discussions.
Laura uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, try new behaviors, and practice attention and breathing skills to manage strong feelings. Solution-focused ideas are used to set short-term goals and identify steps that feel doable week to week.
She has worked in schools, telehealth, and community outpatient settings. That range of settings shapes a flexible approach for everyday problems like sudden anger outbursts, building better boundaries, or handling work frustration. The focus is on practical tools people can use between sessions.
Her credential, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, signals a clinical social work background. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and fees vary by location. To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the platform's online options.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy means the therapist focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the client. It helps people clarify concerns, feel heard, and decide what to work on next. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In sessions she helps identify unhelpful thinking, try alternative responses, and practice new behaviors between meetings. Mindfulness Therapy introduces attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and notice emotion early, which can help with anger and anxiety.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try approaches that match those goals, and adjust based on what helps. Sessions often blend methods so the work stays practical and focused on immediate problems like outbursts, workplace stress, or relationship tension.
Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, and practice tools between meetings. Licensed professionals can use these formats to support steady progress while helping clients apply new skills in everyday life.
