About Laura
Laura Singerman is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression. She makes space for honest conversation and aims to support people as they take steps toward change. Her direct, calm manner helps clients feel heard while they make practical shifts in daily life.
She uses straightforward talk and collaborative planning to build goals that fit each person's routine. Sessions focus on noticing patterns that keep problems going and practicing new responses between meetings.
Background and approach
That can mean small behavioral changes, clearer communication skills, or routines that reduce overwhelm. Laura brings five years of clinical experience in New York to her work. She has helped people with addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship struggles, and mood disorders.
She also addresses concerns around ADHD, phobias, and obsessive-compulsive behaviors when they affect daily functioning. Her approach is flexible rather than prescriptive. She listens first, then suggests tools that match a person's needs and comfort level.
Progress is often tracked through simple homework and check-ins so adjustments can be made along the way. Clients can expect a practical focus on skills and habits as well as space to talk through difficult feelings. Laura supports people aiming for clearer communication, more stable mood, and better coping with life changes.
Approaches and practical online care
Laura uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on behavior and thinking patterns to reduce distress. One common approach emphasizes changing day-to-day habits and routines to lower stress and improve mood; it helps with anxiety, depression, and impulse-related problems. Another approach targets unhelpful thought patterns and teaches skills to shift reactions and choices, which can be useful for obsessive thinking, low self-esteem, and phobias.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She begins by listening to a person's concerns and goals, then tests techniques that fit the client's needs and comfort level. Treatment plans are adjusted over time so the client and therapist choose what helps most.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging offer flexibility for quick updates, brief exercises, or when someone prefers writing over talking. These options make it easier to work therapy into a busy life while still focusing on real behavioral change and coping skills.
