About Laurie

Laurie Jones is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in Nevada with 25 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and intimacy-related issues. Laurie creates a calm, non-judgmental space where clients can talk about what matters most to them.

She draws on several practical approaches to tailor care to each person. That means sessions can include learning skills for emotion regulation, shifting unhelpful thinking patterns, or exploring how early attachment affects current relationships. Laurie also supports people navigating grief, trauma, body image concerns, and identity questions, including LGBTQ+ experiences.

Her style is client-centered and collaborative. She listens first, then works with the person to set small, achievable goals and build tools for everyday life. Laurie values straightforward conversation and concrete steps that fit into a busy schedule.

She has worked with a wide range of issues across different life stages, including parenting strains, blended family challenges, and major life transitions. Special topics she often addresses include abandonment, codependency, communication problems, and BDSM, kink, and alternative sex culture concerns.

People who come to Laurie can expect respectful, practical guidance and steady support while they practice new ways of coping and relating. To begin, prospective clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing thoughts and choosing actions that reflect personal values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and decision-making by moving focus toward meaningful behaviors rather than getting stuck on unhelpful thoughts. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence present patterns. It can be useful for people dealing with intimacy issues, abandonment, or repeated relationship conflicts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical strategies to change thinking and behavior patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and coping skills, with clear exercises and homework to build new habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and daily life before choosing which methods to use. This is a collaborative process and may combine elements of different approaches depending on what helps most.

Confirm session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people join from different locations when international work is appropriate. Ask about session length and scheduling when you complete the initial matching questionnaire so practical details line up with your routine.
