Laurie Hoffman

Laurie Hoffman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with 14 years of clinical experience. She frames therapy as a practical part of daily life, offering ways to connect that aim to fit each person's routine and needs. Laurie emphasizes steady, empathetic support while people work through worry, loss, or disruption.

Her approach centers on listening first and then building steps people can try between sessions. She uses client-centered methods to follow what matters most to the person in the room. Cognitive behavioral techniques are used to spot patterns that keep problems going and to try specific changes that can help reduce stress, panic, or anger.

Laurie also brings mindfulness into sessions to help people notice their feelings and reactions without getting overwhelmed. Motivational interviewing is used when someone is working through addiction or considering change, helping them find their own reasons to move forward. Narrative therapy is another tool she uses to help people reframe difficult stories and discover more helpful perspectives.

People come for many concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, sleep and eating problems, anger, and addiction. She also addresses first responder and veteran issues, compassion fatigue, and career or life-purpose concerns.

The first steps are simple: choose the Start Therapy button, fill a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapist's availability. Laurie uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Laurie uses client-centered work to build a partnership with each person. That means she listens closely and follows what matters most, helping people set goals that feel realistic and relevant to their lives.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Laurie helps people try small, practical changes and skills to reduce anxiety, panic, anger, or depression symptoms.

Mindfulness techniques are offered to help people notice sensations, emotions, and urges without being swept away. These practices can reduce reactivity and help with sleep, stress, and emotional regulation.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Laurie will talk with each person about what they want to change and which methods feel like a good fit. She adjusts plans based on the person’s goals and feedback so the work stays useful and manageable.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Many people appreciate online work because it can fit into a busy day, cut travel time, and make it easier to attend regular sessions. Depending on the formats available, online sessions can allow shorter check-ins, quieter timing around work, or flexibility when dealing with childcare or hectic schedules.
