About Laura
Laura France is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 15 years of experience. She focuses on practical ways to reduce stress and manage anxiety while helping people navigate relationship concerns and parenting challenges. She keeps sessions straightforward and goal-oriented.
Conversations focus on what is happening now, what changes are possible, and small steps clients can try between meetings. Laura emphasizes reducing guilt and shame and easing the burden caregivers often carry.
Background and approach
Her work also addresses depression and major life changes. She helps people clarify values, set boundaries, and rebuild routines that support daily functioning. Communication problems and control issues are common topics in sessions, with attention given to improving interaction patterns.
Laura uses approaches that help clients notice thoughts and try new behaviors. She blends problem-solving with brief, practical strategies tailored to each person. The aim is steady progress through achievable actions rather than quick fixes.
Clients can expect a respectful, nonjudgmental space to talk through hard feelings. She also supports people working on forgiveness, overcoming shame, coping with isolation, and building self-love. Women’s issues and caregiver stress are recurring areas of focus for her practice.
Sessions are offered in English and provided through a range of online formats. Prospective clients from outside the United States are not accepted.

Online approaches that focus on change and problem solving
Laura uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and test the thoughts that influence mood and behavior. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing small behavior changes that lead to different results, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress.She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy, which centers on identifying practical goals and amplifying what already works. This approach is brief and action-oriented, useful for resolving immediate parenting or communication challenges and building on small successes.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to match techniques to their goals and preferences, and she adjusts methods as progress is made. Clients help set priorities and decide which strategies to try between sessions.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging can work for quick check-ins or brief coaching-style exchanges that fit into a busy day. These options make it easier to continue work on stress, parenting, and relationship issues without rearranging a full day.
