Laura Geiger, LMHC

Laura Geiger is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Washington. She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, ADHD, relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, anger, low self-esteem, and major life changes. She also supports people facing career questions, compassion fatigue, bipolar mood concerns, and issues like abandonment and attachment struggles.

Her approach is straightforward and collaborative. She uses cognitive behavioral ideas to notice how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. She centers sessions on the person in front of her and follows their pace. Clients can expect a calm, listening presence rather than a directive lecture.

Laura draws on attachment-based and client-centered methods to strengthen how people relate to themselves and others. She also uses mindfulness and narrative techniques to help people slow down, name patterns, and tell their story in new ways. These tools are offered depending on what the client needs and prefers.

With over two decades of practice, she brings practical problem-solving to day-to-day struggles. Sessions often include simple behavioral experiments, rehearsal of new skills, and short reflections to build insight. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

She practices in Washington and provides services in English. Sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the site's process.

Online therapy using CBT and attachment work

Laura often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and change small behaviors that lead to big improvements. CBT is practical and hands-on, and it can help with anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life transitions.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at patterns in relationships and how past bonds shape current reactions. This approach helps people understand connection, set boundaries, and repair communication patterns. Client-centered methods are woven in so sessions stay focused on each person's goals and what matters most to them.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with clients about goals, try a few techniques, and adjust based on what feels most useful. Decisions about methods are made together rather than imposed.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Video calls are helpful for full discussions and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Shorter check-ins work well via chat or text when clients want ongoing support between sessions. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
