Are you having a difficult time getting through your day because your mind is wondering or you feel so down that you do not have any motivation? Do you feel confused because your mood is up and down?
It may seem that it is never going to stop and I will always have these issues but I want you to know there is help out there and I can help you learn what it is that you are going through and teach you skills that help manage the feelings so you have more great days than low days. I will add some humor into our sessions because sometimes our emotions get to be too much and we need to just laugh once in a while.
I love mixing different therapies because therapy techniques are not cookie cutter and one technique may work for one person but not another person. We will find what works best for you.
Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the concerns you have that are holding you back. Let's work together.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Laura is such an amazing person. I got over 2 of my mental health issues in less than 1.5 months! She helps you ask the right questions and provides good resources.
Laura is kind. She hears you and passes no judgement. Her belief in God is something I align with, which was really important to me when being matched with a therapist. She is quick to respond and provides worksheets and other helpful information. She gives you credit on the little wins while encouraging the big. It’s only been a few sessions but I’m so thankful I got a good one on my first try!

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Laura. She is a fantastic listener and is very accommodating with her schedule. You can tell she truly cares and wants to help in anyway she can. Her advise and strategies are so helpful. I wouldn’t be where I am now if it wasn’t for her and her guidance. I feel so fortunate I turned to BetterHelp to help me.

I have had 3 sessions with Laura Anderson. I find her to be an effective listener. She is compassionate and supportive. Laura responds to my questions honestly and professionally. I think Laura is here to help people. I get a sense when I talk to Laura that she not only intellectualizes what I'm going through and responding to, but can feel what I'm going through to a certain degree. I feel that she cares and is committed to helping me improve. It does not feel transactional. Laura seems to be a natural, when it comes to helping people. Her professional experience enhances enhances her abilities. I would recommend Laura to a person that is dedicated to helping themselves progress. I think her counseling could be effective for a wide range of circumstances. She seems to be very knowledgeable. I am very grateful for my experience in therapy with Laura.
Laura has been able to hear all of my concerns and worries with no judgement at all. She listens and truly wants to help. She’s so relatable and has a way to help you without making you feel as though something is wrong with you. I am very thankful she has been in this journey with me.
Laura has been very positive and helpful in guiding me to except things I thought I couldn’t except before. You has helped me believe in myself and realize I am more than I thought I was!
Connect well with Laura. Down to earth.
Laura has a gift. A true healer with a heart for people that is hard to find. I'm not sure if I saw wings on her in the videochat but I'm pretty sure she's an angel. The Love inside her shines brighter than the sun!
Laura is wonderful. She is a wonderful listener and really takes time to help you process through things. She is also incredibly helpful in providing resources and tools.
Laura listens very well and asks thought provoking questions that make you self reflect and point you in the right direction to solve your problems. The exercises she has assigned to me have been very eye opening to me and have helped me realize things I may have been ignoring or how I perceived certain things are different than I originally thought they were. Laura is an extremely talented therapist and has helped me in a very quick time frame to resolve some items I have been wrestling with.
Laura is the absolute best! I have never done consistent therapy, but with her it’s become easy and enjoyable! I look forward to my sessions with Laura. She creates a safe, comforting, and positive environment. She listens and gives real genuine advice. Laura will check in and make sure you are doing the work necessary to heal and feel better. Thank you Laura for being a great therapist!
