About Laura
Laura Hazard is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Arizona with six years as an LPC. She focuses on common, stressful life problems like anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, compassion fatigue, and codependency. Her work also covers addiction concerns, sleep trouble, anger, self-esteem, career stress, and changes that come with aging.
Laura uses straightforward, practical methods to help people manage overwhelming situations. She draws on client-centered approaches so conversations focus on what matters to the person in front of her. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to notice unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. Mindfulness techniques help slow down automatic reactions.
People come to her when life feels like too much after big changes, during mental health crisis recovery, or when caring for others becomes draining. She helps break large problems into smaller steps and build on strengths already present. Sessions are aimed at making daily life more manageable rather than promising quick fixes.
Her background includes work with people navigating unhealthy relationship patterns, personality-related concerns, and stress tied to caregiving or blended family situations. She uses narrative and motivational interviewing ideas to help people clarify values and find practical next steps.
Laura offers services in English from Arizona. Before scheduling, readers should confirm current session options and any specifics about how sessions are held.
How sessions work
How her methods translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. In practice this means conversations that follow the client’s priorities and help them name what they want to change or keep. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and tests small, practical changes to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that can reduce reactivity and improve sleep and stress management.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Laura will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels useful, then adjust methods together. That collaborative planning helps decide whether to emphasize skill practice, values clarification, or short behavioral experiments.
Specific session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They can also let someone choose audio-only conversation when bandwidth or energy is low, or use video when visual cues help progress. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to suit everyday life and practical limits.
