About Laura
Laura Hall is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Arkansas with 11 years of experience in mental health care. She focuses on practical help for everyday struggles like anxiety, depression, addiction, and stress. Laura also offers support for relationship and family concerns, parenting questions, grief, trauma, and work-related strain.
She trained at Henderson State University, earning a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Her work history includes schools, community mental health, hospitals, and independent practice, so she has seen issues in many settings.
Background and approach
During the COVID-19 outbreak she developed a focus on technology-assisted counseling to reach people who could not come into an office. Laura’s style is open-minded and down-to-earth. She uses clear examples and practical steps so ideas are easy to try between sessions.
She emphasizes realistic goals that match a person’s values and daily life rather than one-size-fits-all plans. In sessions she blends client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused strategies. That mix lets her focus on current problems, identify unhelpful thinking, and build small habits that produce change.
She checks messaging at least twice daily and is often available for live chat, with some weekend phone or video times. Parents seeking help with parenting stress, blended family issues, attachment concerns, or behavior and communication problems may find her practical approach useful. She aims to make therapy understandable and doable for busy families.

How her approaches work in online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience first. The therapist reflects what she hears and helps a client name priorities, which is useful for building trust and deciding practical steps to try.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. In online sessions this often means identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, testing a small change between sessions, and tracking results to reduce anxiety or mood symptoms.
Solution-focused therapy concentrates on what is working now and on clear, short-term goals. It is a good fit for parents who want concrete strategies to change routines, improve communication, or handle specific behavior challenges.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals, try methods that fit your situation, and adjust as needed based on what helps you most. Together you set realistic steps that fit your life and values.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation when bandwidth permits. Phone sessions can be easier when you need a shorter check-in or have lower bandwidth. Live chat and messaging let you share updates or ask quick questions between sessions and can fit busy schedules. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
