About Laurie
Laurie White is a KS Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker (LSCSW) with eight years of professional experience. She works with adults on addiction, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and parenting concerns. Laurie also addresses anxiety, depression, stress, grief, and related struggles such as sleep problems and anger.
She uses practical conversation and structured tools rather than jargon. Sessions focus on what is happening now and what can be changed. Laurie draws from approaches like attachment work, client-centered methods, and cognitive-behavioral techniques to help people notice patterns and try new responses.
People contact her for relationship tensions, codependency, and the strains that come with caregiving or blended family issues. She also supports those coping with abandonment, attachment wounds, or the aftermath of domestic violence and substance misuse. Laurie lists ADHD, dissociation, and mood disruption among areas she addresses.
Her style balances listening with concrete strategies. That can mean identifying unhelpful thoughts, practicing emotion skills, or noticing how past connections shape present reactions. Homework and short exercises are used when they help move things forward.
Laurie works in Kansas and conducts sessions in English. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
Approaches used in online work and what they look like
Laurie draws on attachment-based work to look at how early relationships shape current reactions. That can help when loyalty conflicts or trust issues come up in blended households. Client-centered methods mean conversations focus on the person in front of her, with the therapist following the client's priorities and reflections.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT gives concrete tools to test unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. These approaches suit issues like anxiety, depression, relationship tension, and coping with life changes.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. She will talk with clients about goals and try methods that match those goals and preferences. If an approach isn't helping, they adjust it together rather than sticking to a single plan.
The therapist's profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also allow appointments during a lunch break or when childcare is limited. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework for remote sessions to keep progress moving.
