About Laurie

Laurie Tucker is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New York with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage addictions, recover from trauma and abuse, and regain motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. Laurie also supports clients who are coping with significant life changes and the everyday stresses that can make progress feel difficult.

She conducts her work with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, adapting conversations and treatment plans to reflect each person’s individual needs and circumstances. Laurie believes that seeking a more fulfilling life takes courage, and she views her role as one of support and empowerment, partnering with clients to set goals and take meaningful steps toward positive change. Her approach centers on meeting people where they are and tailoring care to the priorities that matter most to them.

Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Care

Laurie Tucker draws on client-centered therapy to create a supportive space where the client's perspective guides the work. This approach emphasizes empathy and collaboration, helping people feel heard and understood as they explore goals and challenges. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, a practical method that examines how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and helps clients develop skills to manage anxiety, depression, and stress. Motivational interviewing is another tool she employs, especially helpful for people struggling with addictions or ambivalence about change; it focuses on strengthening a person’s own motivation and commitment to goals.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Laurie works collaboratively with each client to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility for scheduling and for the way people communicate. Clients can meet by video call, speak by phone, or use live chat and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to access licensed professionals from different locations. These options support continuity of care and allow the therapeutic work to continue in ways that suit each person best.
