Laura Holmberg, LPCC

Laura Holmberg is a licensed mental health professional who brings varied frontline experience to her therapeutic work. With three years as a practicing clinician and earlier roles that include ARMHS worker, case manager, clinical supervisor, and treatment professional, she has supported people across community settings, in their homes, and in residential programs. This background has given her a clear view of how living environments - including poverty and systemic racism - shape mental health and daily functioning.

She approaches therapy with a focus on mood disorders, stress and anxiety, bipolar disorder, depression, and navigating life changes, while also attending to related concerns such as guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, and post-traumatic stress. As an LPCC - a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, indicating formal clinical training to provide counseling and psychotherapy - she combines practical skills with compassion to help clients build coping strategies and find clearer direction.

Holmberg’s own experiences inform her commitment to reducing stigma around seeking help. She integrates a values-informed perspective, including her Christian faith, into a practice centered on empathy and collaboration, aiming to meet people where they are and support meaningful change.

Evidence-Based Techniques for Remote Mental Health Support

Laura Holmberg uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people identify unhelpful patterns and build practical skills. One common focus is working with thoughts and behaviors to reduce distress - this involves noticing automatic thoughts, testing assumptions, and practicing new ways of responding to stressful situations. Another emphasis is on skills-based coping and emotion regulation, teaching strategies for managing intense emotions, reducing avoidance, and improving day-to-day functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Holmberg collaborates with each person to determine which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts strategies over time so the work stays relevant and manageable.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for scheduling and for communicating in the ways that feel most comfortable. These formats make it possible to receive consistent support from a licensed professional while balancing work, family, and other responsibilities.
