About Laura
Drawing on an approach that blends insight and skill-building, she guides clients toward meaningful change by helping them identify values, learn coping strategies, and practice new ways of responding to difficult emotions and situations. As an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker - she brings clinical training in assessment, evidence-informed interventions, and long-term recovery planning.
Todd believes that growth and change remain possible throughout life, and she centers therapy on each person’s goals and strengths. Her work aims to translate awareness into action so that clients can navigate stressors, improve relationships, and pursue a more fulfilling sense of well-being.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and learn to accept difficult feelings while taking steps toward meaningful goals. It can be useful for stress, life transitions, and patterns of avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with more adaptive patterns; it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and coping with everyday challenges. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches practical skills for regulating intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with relationship difficulties and strong emotional reactions.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Laura Todd works collaboratively with clients to determine the best fit based on each person’s needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors methods and tools over time so therapy remains responsive and aligned with what matters most to the client.
Online therapy with licensed professionals offers flexibility to connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy routines, maintain continuity during life changes, and access care from different locations while working with a therapist who can adapt methods to an online format.
