About Laura
Laura Arnold is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Nevada and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Arizona and South Carolina, with nine years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and challenges tied to ADHD and bipolar disorder. She also lists concerns around family and LGBT issues and a wide range of interpersonal problems.
Her approach is conversational and interactive. Sessions focus on practical skills and clearer thinking. She draws on client-centered ideas to follow what matters most to the person in front of her. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are offered to help with emotion regulation and building coping strategies. Motivational Interviewing is used when change feels difficult or when substance use is a concern. These methods are mixed to match a person’s goals rather than sticking to a single theory.
Laura’s background includes work across private practice, substance abuse inpatient and outpatient settings, partial hospitalization, and correctional facilities. That variety has shaped a practical, results-oriented style. She emphasizes building a reliable working relationship as the foundation for change.
People who come to her can expect straightforward sessions that focus on what’s disrupting daily life and on small, manageable steps forward. She accepts clients who speak English and works with international clients as well. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options.
How sessions work
How her approaches are used online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a collaborative relationship. It helps adults clarify what they want to change and sets the priorities for work together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical techniques for recognizing and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving coping when impulsive behavior or strong reactions get in the way.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and then suggest approaches that fit. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs shift over time.
The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online appointments can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some people prefer a session that uses video; others choose audio only for a simpler setup. Discussing how sessions will be scheduled and what length fits your routine happens at the first meeting so therapy can slot into everyday life.
