Laura Nagy

Laura Nagy is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with thirty years in the mental health field. She focuses on client-centered, solution-focused work and aims to help people set their own goals. Her approach emphasizes practical steps and homework between sessions to keep progress moving forward.

Laura draws on experience with stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma-related concerns. She has supported people coping with relationship challenges, career and work stressors, parenting struggles, and family problems. She has also worked with clients facing PTSD and suicidal ideation, and has experience with addictions and eating and sleeping difficulties.

Her sessions are strengths-based and collaborative. She helps people recognize the courage it took to reach out, and builds on existing supports in a person’s life. Expect clear goal-setting, tools to practice between meetings, and encouragement to use natural supports.

Laura also has experience with Equine-Assisted Therapy in her background. That work complements her interest in practical, grounded strategies that people can use outside the therapy room. She emphasizes steady, achievable steps rather than quick fixes.

People who want straightforward, goal-oriented counseling often find her style useful. She aims to help clients move toward greater calm, clearer communication, and improved day-to-day functioning. To start, she guides clients through setting realistic goals and building a toolkit for ongoing coping and growth.

How Laura’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s goals and experiences. It means sessions center on what matters to the client, with the therapist listening closely and helping to clarify priorities. This approach can help with relationship stress, low self-esteem, and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, uses practical techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It often includes homework and specific exercises to try between meetings, useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT gives concrete tools that people can use in day-to-day situations.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That might mean blending client-centered listening with CBT exercises and short-term solution-focused tasks to create a clear plan.

Confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what’s offered. Online therapy can make regular meetings easier to fit into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports keeping up with homework between sessions and applying tools in the moments they are useful.
