About Laura

Laura Miller is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in New York with 22 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictive behaviors, and relationship strain. She also supports clients who are coping with major life changes and feelings of isolation or loneliness.

She approaches therapy as a collaborative process. She sees each person as the expert on their own life and works from their strengths. Sessions focus on practical steps that match the client’s goals and pace.

Over two decades in practice, she has helped people manage panic attacks, substance use concerns, codependency, and caregiver stress. She also addresses issues like guilt, shame, forgiveness, and questions about life purpose and self-worth. Her work often centers on clear, doable strategies that reduce overwhelming feelings and improve daily functioning.

Her style aims to be direct and supportive. She encourages clients to notice what is working and to build skills for handling hard moments. For many clients this includes short-term coping tools and longer-term exploration of patterns that contribute to repeating difficulties.

To start, clients select the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapist’s availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, so people can choose what fits their life.

How evidence-based methods translate to online care

Laura uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and insight. One common approach involves teaching practical coping skills to reduce anxiety and manage panic attacks; these are short exercises and behavioral tools clients can practice between sessions. Another approach centers on addressing addictive patterns and codependency by identifying triggers and building routines that support recovery and healthier relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences, then suggest techniques that fit your situation. This is a collaborative process where strategies are adjusted as you try them and report back on what helps.

The practical benefits of online therapy often include fitting sessions into busy schedules and keeping momentum when life is changeable. Because the specific session formats are not stated in the profile, confirm current options before booking. Many people find that remote work makes it easier to keep regular appointments, check in during a hectic week, or use shorter sessions when that best supports progress.
