Hello, my name is Laura Gillom. I am an LCSW in Mississippi with over 14 years of psychotherapy experience. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including stress, depression, anxiety, family conflict, and transitions of life. I have also helped many people who have experienced all types of trauma and emotional abuse.

My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with dignity, respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stereotyping and stigmatizing labels. I use an eclectic approach to therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I always enjoy my weekly and sometimes biweekly therapy sessions with Reverend Gillom. She’s a great listener and always makes me feel comfortable with opening up to her. I’m blessed that BetterHelp assigned me to her.

For the past two months, Rev. Laura Gillom has counseled me on family conflicts/ relationships , self awareness and other related issues. I definitely feel stronger and more peaceful based on the coping methods she suggested and various articles and exercises she shared. She listens and responds, prompts me to think and analyze my behavior and reactions to my conflict issues. The journal entries I wrote prompt self revelation, and she responds to my writings in a timely and encouraging manner. As long as I continue the work, I know that I have a more stable foundation upon which to stand. I thank God that He led me to choose this therapist. Rev. Gillom definitely fit my specific needs.
