About Laura
Laura Nagy is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 30 years of experience in the mental health field. She has worked since 1995 supporting people with depression, anxiety, OCD, and PTSD, and with stresses that come from work, parenting, and family life.
She uses a client-centered and solution-focused approach that puts the person’s goals first. Laura asks clients to set goals and often assigns practical steps or homework between sessions to keep progress moving. She emphasizes strengths and looks for existing supports people can draw on.
Her background includes crisis counseling and work with people who have experienced trauma or suicidal thoughts. She has also practiced Equine-Assisted Therapy in addition to more traditional clinic work. Laura helps people who are dealing with relationship strain, grief, self-esteem issues, addiction concerns, and anger among other challenges.
In sessions she tends to be direct about making a plan. Conversations focus on concrete tools, small experiments, and coping strategies that fit daily life. The approach is intended to help someone reduce stress, manage strong emotions, and handle recurring problems that get in the way.
Clients can expect a practical rhythm: set goals, try targeted exercises between visits, and adjust plans as needed. Laura explains ideas plainly and checks in on what is working. She also encourages people to identify supports they can rely on outside therapy.
How her approaches shape online sessions
Laura uses Client-Centered Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy in ways that fit straightforward online work. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, understanding the client’s goals, and letting the person guide what to focus on. It helps when someone needs a space to sort through feelings and priorities. Solution-Focused Therapy prioritizes short-term, goal-oriented steps and small experiments. It suits people who want concrete changes and clear homework between meetings.Finding the right approach is part of the first few sessions. The therapist and client will review needs, goals, and preferences and pick or combine approaches that make the most sense. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is tracked.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time. It can also help someone try homework tasks between sessions and bring real-life examples back to talk through during meetings.
