About Laura
Laura Johnson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Wisconsin with five years of clinical experience. She takes a collaborative, down-to-earth approach and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, and relationship and family concerns. Her work is grounded in practical talk and concrete strategies rather than jargon.
Laura blends several counseling approaches to fit each person's needs. She often draws on Attachment-based Therapy to look at how early relationships affect current patterns.
Background and approach
She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools to teach coping skills and change unhelpful thinking. Sessions are a mix of listening, reflection, and skill practice. Clients can expect a calm, patient presence in sessions.
Laura describes her style as gentle and team-oriented - she works with people to set realistic goals and pace the work. Conversations cover feelings, day-to-day habits, and what gets in the way of the life someone wants to build.
She has experience with a broad set of concerns including trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting stress, anger, self-esteem, bipolar concerns, and ADHD. Additional focuses include attachment issues, codependency, blended family challenges, caregiver stress, and multicultural matters. Outside of work, she spends time with family and dogs and enjoys outdoor activities like camping and trail riding.
Her approach aims to help people make steady progress toward healthier relationships and daily functioning.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Attachment-based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current feelings and behavior. Online sessions can explore those patterns through discussion, reflective exercises, and relationship history work to help someone notice and change repeating cycles.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and taking steps toward valued life directions. In remote sessions ACT can include mindfulness exercises, values clarification, and small behavioral experiments to try between meetings.
Finding the right approach is often a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, background, and preferences and then try methods that fit. Adjustments are made over time based on what helps the client make steady progress.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how and when people meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be used for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, or caregiving schedules while using the approaches described above.
