About Laura
Laura Geiger is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Washington with 22 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns along with grief, trauma and mood issues. Laura supports people dealing with parenting strain, ADHD, career stress, and compassion fatigue.
She trained at Antioch University Seattle and has long experience in community mental health and private practice. Much of her early work focused on adolescents, and she has continued to help people connected to family systems. Her background includes using art therapy approaches alongside talk therapy in clinical settings.
Laura describes her style as client-centered. That means she pays attention to what each person brings and follows their pace. She often uses cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice patterns and try different responses to difficult situations.
She also draws on attachment-based thinking to look at how relationships shape coping and on narrative and mindfulness methods to shift unhelpful stories and reduce reactivity. Sessions are practical and focused on small, doable steps people can try between meetings.
People who come to her for social anxiety and phobia-related worries can expect a clear, steady approach that emphasizes understanding how relationships and thinking patterns keep problems going. Laura helps clients explore options, practice new skills, and track what works for them over time.
How her approaches translate to online work
Laura often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and actions and can be helpful for anxiety, mood, and impulse issues.She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships influence coping and emotional patterns. That work helps people understand recurring relationship struggles, communication problems, and patterns linked to childhood experiences. Narrative therapy is another tool she uses to help people rewrite the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships, which can reduce shame and increase clearer choices.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Laura will talk with the client about their goals and preferences and then suggest methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.
