About Laura

Laura Wagner brings more than 32 years of clinical experience as an Indiana-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) to her therapeutic work. She guides people through depression, anxiety, trauma, addictions, ADHD, and the stresses of life transitions with a steady, experienced presence.

Background and approach

Her approach blends practical strategies with attention to underlying emotional patterns so clients can build skills and insight that fit their day-to-day lives. Her style centers on compassion and respect for each person's inner resources, helping clients address communication problems, loneliness, and questions about life purpose and self-love.

Laura draws on a range of evidence-informed methods to tailor sessions to individual needs, encouraging self-compassion while strengthening resilience. The result is a collaborative process aimed at clarifying goals, challenging limiting beliefs, and discovering sustainable ways to move forward.

Practical therapeutic approaches for online care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and reshaping unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; it is often helpful for anxiety, depression, stress, and managing symptoms associated with ADHD. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, non-directive relationship where the therapist provides empathic listening and supports clients in accessing their own insights and strengths.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to understand their goals, preferences, and current challenges, and will adapt methods over time so the work feels relevant and aligned with what matters most to the client.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These remote formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, maintain continuity during transitions, and access consistent support from a licensed professional located in Indiana.
