About Laura

Laura Wiseman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New Jersey with 20 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship and parenting concerns, anger, grief, mood disorders such as bipolar and depression, and life transitions. Sessions are conducted in English and aimed at practical steps people can try between meetings.

Laura uses clear, straightforward conversation to help people understand what triggers their anger and stress. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and to set small, achievable changes. The Gottman Method informs her work with people who want to improve communication and reduce recurring conflict.

Her style is client-centered, meaning sessions focus on the person in front of her and the goals they bring. Meetings typically include problem-solving, skill practice, and checking what worked since the last appointment. People often leave with short exercises to try on their own between sessions.

Laura has two decades of practice in clinical settings and community work in New Jersey. That background gives her experience with trauma, domestic violence, fertility-related stress, and social anxiety. She also supports people managing ADHD, career challenges, and the aftermath of loss.

How her approaches work in online sessions

Laura commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and the Gottman Method when working online. CBT focuses on identifying thought patterns that feed anger and stress, then testing small behavior changes to see what helps. The Gottman Method centers on communication skills and practical exercises to reduce repeated conflict and improve listening.

She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, short-term goals and track progress. This approach looks for small, concrete steps that lead to visible changes, which people can use between sessions. Choosing the right mix of methods is collaborative - the therapist and client decide together what fits the client's goals and circumstances.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. The therapist will discuss what session length and structure suit day-to-day life during the initial scheduling process.
