About Laura

Laura Phillips is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York with 17 years of experience supporting people through complex emotional challenges. She focuses on helping clients manage depression and anxiety, repair and improve relationships, and recover from trauma while honoring each person’s individual story. She brings a compassionate, strengths-based approach that aims to increase self-understanding and resilience.

Her practice emphasizes a supportive, nonjudgmental atmosphere where clients can explore past wounds, practice new ways of relating, and develop tools for everyday life. Laura has extensive experience addressing women's issues, multicultural concerns, and the stresses of life transitions, including workplace strain and shifting family roles. She works collaboratively to help clients build self-compassion, improve communication, and lessen social anxiety and feelings of isolation or shame.

Clients can expect an approach that blends clinical skill with cultural sensitivity and practical strategies for growth. Laura’s style centers on partnership and empowerment, helping people move through difficult periods toward clearer goals and stronger connections.

Attachment-Informed and Client-Centered Online Therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy helps people understand patterns in close relationships by exploring how early bonds shape current reactions. It can be useful for those dealing with intimacy difficulties, abandonment concerns, or repeated relationship challenges. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the individual’s experience by offering empathy and acceptance to foster self-discovery and personal growth; it supports people navigating life transitions, self-esteem issues, and decision-making. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Laura collaborates with clients to determine which methods fit best based on their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring to sessions, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds so therapy feels tailored and practical.

Online sessions offered by licensed professionals provide flexibility to meet when and how it works best for each person. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it easier to access care around work, family, and geographic constraints while maintaining continuity and consistent support throughout the therapeutic process.
