About Laurie

Laurie Ormerod is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma who helps people manage stress and anxiety. She focuses on life's transitions, family dynamics, and issues that affect how people relate to themselves and others. Her work often centers on building resilience and clearer self-understanding so clients can move forward with purpose.

She brings 12 years of clinical experience to sessions and has worked extensively with trauma, self-esteem struggles, and workplace relationship problems. Laurie offers faith-informed counseling rooted in a Christian perspective for clients who find that framework useful. She focuses on practical steps clients can take to feel more grounded and make day-to-day changes.

Her approach emphasizes emotional healing, forgiveness, and recovering from abandonment wounds. Laurie also supports people working on boundaries, codependency patterns, and self-love. Sessions address relationship patterns and intimacy-related issues with attention to personal meaning and life purpose.

Laurie helps people facing grief, career stress, addiction concerns, bipolar and depression challenges, and compassion fatigue. She also works with parenting questions and the stress that comes with balancing work and family roles. Clients can expect collaborative, goal-focused conversations aimed at clearer next steps.

Therapy is offered in English and delivered from her Oklahoma practice. To begin, prospective clients follow the Start Therapy steps on the site to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

How evidence-based approaches guide online work

Laurie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional healing. One common approach she uses helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and experiment with new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce stress and anxiety. Another common method focuses on processing trauma and building skills to manage strong emotions and improve day-to-day functioning.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Laurie will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and the problems they want to solve, and then recommend techniques to try. Together they monitor what helps and adjust the plan as needed so sessions stay useful and focused on real progress.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific online formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, since it can reduce travel time and allow appointments during breaks or between commitments. It can also make shorter check-ins possible when a full session is not needed, and reduce the need to arrange childcare or travel logistics.
