About Laura
Laura Arnold is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with nine years of experience. She practices in South Carolina and works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship struggles, grief, depression, and issues around intimacy and codependency.
Laura keeps sessions conversational and practical. She talks through current problems, helps identify patterns, and offers tools to manage emotions and behaviors. Her work often focuses on communication problems, attachment and abandonment concerns, and the fallout from substance use or betrayal.
Her approach draws on client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and motivational interviewing. That means she listens for what matters to each person, looks at thought and behavior patterns, and teaches skills for handling intense feelings and urges.
Laura has worked in private practice and in substance abuse and correctional settings. That range of experience informs how she plans sessions and sets practical goals. She is used to short-term work and longer-term support depending on what a person needs.
Sessions are straightforward and goal-oriented. Expect a mix of talking, skill practice, and problem-solving. Laura accepts international clients and conducts work in English. Before booking, confirm the current session formats that are available.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions fit
Client-centered therapy emphasizes understanding a person’s experience without judgment. The therapist listens, reflects, and helps the client identify what matters and where to begin. This approach is useful when someone feels lost in relationships or unsure how to set boundaries.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It gives concrete techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, and codependency-related habits. Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, teaches specific skills for handling intense emotions, managing distress, and improving communication in relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods to use based on goals, needs, and preferences. That conversation can shift as priorities change over time.
The biography does not specify exact session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins on hectic days, and avoid travel time. Many people find that remote work helps them stay consistent with appointments and practice skills between sessions.
