About Laura

Laura Herp is a licensed clinical social worker with 20 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, and depression. She speaks plainly and meets people where they are. Her approach centers on respect, sensitivity, and steady support for whatever feels most pressing right now.

She works with parents and people concerned about family and parenting matters, including relationship strain, intimacy-related issues, grief, and the stress of caring roles. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps and time to talk through how daily life is being affected. She aims to tailor conversation and plans to each person’s situation rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions.

Her methods include mindfulness-based work to help with stress and emotional regulation. She also uses Internal Family Systems ideas to help people notice different parts of themselves and reduce internal conflict. These approaches are used to address problems such as anger, self-esteem struggles, eating concerns, ADHD, bipolar challenges, and coping with life changes.

Laura values collaboration. She helps clients set realistic goals and tries approaches that fit their pace and needs. If you want straightforward support for parenting pressures, relationship tensions, or longstanding mood and anxiety problems, she aims to provide steady guidance and practical tools.

To begin, expect a calm, focused conversation where the plan is shaped around your priorities and daily life demands.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Mindfulness Therapy helps people build simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and calm anxiety. It often involves short exercises you can do between sessions to notice bodily sensations and slow down reactive patterns.

Internal Family Systems works by identifying different inner parts that hold emotions or beliefs. Through guided conversation, clients learn to relate to those parts with curiosity rather than judgment, which can ease internal conflict and support clearer choices around relationships and parenting.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your needs and pace. Together you can adapt techniques from mindfulness and Internal Family Systems to match what helps most in daily life.
