About Laura

Laura Hall is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Arkansas with 11 years of experience in mental health. She combines straightforward conversation and practical tools to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and relationship or family concerns. Her style is down-to-earth and accepting, and she focuses on setting realistic goals that fit a person's values and daily life.

Laura trained at Henderson State University where she earned a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. She has worked across school, community mental health, hospital, and private practice settings, which shaped her flexible approach to care. She values listening first and helping people feel understood before jumping into strategies.

In sessions she uses client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and solution-focused tools. She often offers concrete examples to make ideas easier to try in real life. Laura emphasizes practical steps and clear goals that can be adjusted as progress is made.

She became interested in technology-assisted counseling during the COVID-19 outbreak and has kept that focus to reach people who cannot use traditional services. Laura is responsive to messages and checks them at least twice a day to stay connected between meetings. She aims to create a welcoming space where clients can confront goals and work toward improved day-to-day functioning.

People who prefer a straightforward, respectful, and goal-oriented therapist may find her approach helpful. She works with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, grief, ADHD, intimacy issues, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's experience without judgement. It helps when someone needs a steady, supportive space to talk through worries or life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches specific strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit best with their goals and day-to-day life. This means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting plans together as progress is made.

The therapist pursued technology-assisted counseling to reach people who cannot use traditional services, but the biography does not list all session formats. Please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, allow shorter check-in conversations when needed, and support consistent follow-up between meetings. Licensed professionals use these formats to keep therapy practical and usable in everyday life.
