About Laurie

Laurie Hoffman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with 14 years of clinical experience. She offers therapy in ways intended to fit into everyday life and meet practical needs. Laurie aims to help people feel more grounded and understood as they work through hard moments.

She creates a calm space to pause and reflect when life feels overwhelming. Laurie helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, and compassion fatigue. She also supports those dealing with relationship and intimacy-related concerns, career stress, sleep and eating difficulties, and panic or phobia symptoms.

Laurie uses approaches such as Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Narrative Therapy. In sessions she focuses on clear, practical steps along with listening and reflection. That mix lets people try small changes and see what helps in day-to-day life.

She also works with issues like body image, control and communication problems, first responder concerns, veteran and armed forces issues, and coping with natural or human-caused disaster. Laurie addresses substance use and recovery-related topics and offers support around guilt, shame, forgiveness, and finding life purpose.

If you prefer to meet remotely, she describes teletherapy, phone, and text options as ways clients connect. Before booking, confirm the current session options so they match what you need.

How therapy methods translate to online care

Laurie practices Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening and following the person’s lead to understand what matters most. That approach helps people feel heard and shapes sessions around their priorities.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking and try practical behavior changes. CBT can be useful for anxiety, panic, depression, and many day-to-day struggles by breaking problems into manageable steps.

Finding the right method is part of the work together. Laurie will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then try approaches that fit those needs. The choice of techniques is collaborative and can shift as progress is made.

Laurie has described using teletherapy, phone, and text as ways clients connect, so please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking. Online options can make it easier to fit sessions into work or family routines, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let people keep continuity of care during life changes while using the therapy approaches mentioned above.
