About Laura

Laura Singerman is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in New York who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and anger. She writes in a direct, encouraging way and focuses on practical steps people can take to feel steadier. Laura emphasizes a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can speak honestly and begin to make changes.

She has five years of professional experience supporting people through motivation struggles, confidence concerns, and mood-related issues. She also addresses addictions, grief, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, and parenting pressures. Additional areas of focus include body image, family of origin problems, impulsivity, and obsessive or compulsive patterns.

In sessions she aims to help clients name what feels hard and choose small, doable steps forward. Conversations often include setting clear goals and practicing new ways to respond to stress and anger. The style is practical and grounded, with attention to what will work in everyday life.

Laura accepts international clients and offers sessions in English. She describes seeking therapy as a courageous move and positions herself as a collaborator who supports and empowers people through change. Her approach centers on helping clients build skills and confidence while navigating life transitions and mood challenges.

To begin, the usual process is to complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability. The focus is on finding workable strategies that fit each person’s routine and goals.

Evidence-based approaches and online care that fit your life

Laura describes using evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and symptom relief. One common approach emphasizes identifying unhelpful thought patterns and practicing new responses so anxiety, anger, and low mood are easier to manage. This involves breaking problems into smaller pieces and trying concrete skills between sessions.

Another approach centers on behavior-focused strategies that encourage gradual experiments in daily life. That can mean building routines, establishing small steps toward goals, and using repeated practice to reduce avoidance and impulsivity. These methods tend to help with motivation, mood shifts, and managing urges.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match goals, needs, and preferences. That process may include trying a technique briefly and adjusting based on what helps.

The 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 schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people keep continuity of care when life or location changes, while focusing on practical skills that transfer into daily routines.
