Laura Frelich

Laura Frelich is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Michigan with 19 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and life transitions. Laura aims to create an open space where clients can speak honestly about what’s going on for them.

She uses straightforward talk therapy to address relationship strain, family problems, and parenting challenges. Sessions also cover addiction concerns, grief, and issues related to identity, including LGBT and women’s issues. Laura works with mood concerns such as depression and bipolar disorder and helps people develop everyday coping strategies.

Her approach centers on the person in the room. That means listening first, then shaping goals together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered methods are often part of the process, adapted to what each person needs.

Laura helps clients break large problems into manageable steps. She supports practical skill-building for stress management, anger, and attention concerns like ADHD. The focus is on usable tools that fit into daily life.

Beginning therapy with Laura starts with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first appointment. She reminds people that asking for help takes courage and that change often happens one step at a time.

How these approaches fit into online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship. The therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects what they hear, and helps clarify goals. This approach can help when people need a supportive place to talk through difficult feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking and build new habits, which can help with anxiety, depression, anger, and some addiction-related behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try first, and adjust the plan based on progress and preferences.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm which options are available before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, shorten travel time, and allow quick check-ins when needed. Different formats may be helpful for quieter check-ins, shorter skill practice, or regular weekly sessions depending on what a person needs.
