About Laura

Laura Braswell is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida. She brings three years of clinical experience and a lived life shaped by long-term parenting and foster care involvement. Laura speaks English and offers help for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, addictions, and other everyday challenges.

She uses straightforward conversation to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions focus on practical steps a person can try between meetings. Laura often combines mindfulness, acceptance-based ideas, and cognitive tools to shift unhelpful patterns over time.

Her background includes work across multiple clinical settings and experience with individual, group, and couples counseling. This has shaped a flexible approach that responds to each person’s situation rather than a rigid protocol. She draws on attachment-focused ideas when relationship history matters to current struggles.

Clients can expect direct, compassionate guidance and an emphasis on values and goals. Laura frames change as a series of concrete choices and small actions. She supports people wanting to manage mood, improve relationships, address parenting challenges, or break cycles like addiction and self-defeating habits.

Her practice pays attention to thoughts and everyday habits that keep people stuck. Laura invites collaboration on short-term targets and longer-term growth. To begin, users complete the site Start Therapy process and match to schedule sessions according to availability.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. It helps people move toward meaningful goals instead of waiting to feel ready. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical steps to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and repetitive habits. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationships shape current ways of relating and can help with intimacy, trust, and communication problems.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they adjust methods over time so the work fits the person’s needs rather than the other way around.

The biography does not list specific remote session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins, and offering options when someone prefers not to be on camera. It also allows continuity of care for people living away from the therapist’s area. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and attachment-focused work to remote sessions by using exercises, mindfulness practices, values work, and homework that fit daily routines.
