About Laura

Laura Hazard is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Arizona who focuses on helping people manage major life stressors. She meets people where they are and helps break overwhelming problems into smaller, manageable steps. Her style is warm and approachable, and she aims to create a calm space for people to talk things through.

With six years as an LPC and a longer background working in behavioral roles, Laura draws on straightforward, practical strategies. She uses cognitive behavioral ideas to increase awareness of how thoughts and actions connect. That helps people spot patterns and try small changes that add up.

Laura also uses client-centered methods and mindfulness to keep sessions grounded in each person’s goals. Motivational interviewing supports people who want help making and keeping difficult changes. Narrative approaches help rewrite stories people tell about themselves when those stories feel stuck or harmful.

She has worked with people facing anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, compassion fatigue, addiction concerns, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem struggles, and bipolar disorder. She also supports those coping with life transitions and with issues related to aging, caregiver stress, blended family dynamics, codependency, and intimacy concerns.

If you are dealing with the fallout from a natural or human-caused disaster, she lists coping with those impacts among her focus areas and can help people process practical and emotional effects. To begin, pick the Start Therapy button and complete the short matching questionnaire to schedule according to therapist availability.

How Laura’s approaches fit into online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and following the person’s lead. It helps people feel understood and decide what changes matter most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and uses simple experiments to test new ways of coping with anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Laura will work with each person to choose strategies that match their goals and comfort level. She will adjust methods as needs change so therapy stays practical and relevant.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also make it simpler to keep a regular cadence of sessions while navigating work, caregiving, or recovery from disruptive events.
