Laura Balalaos

Have you been feeling sad, emotionally exhausted, overwhelmed, angry, misunderstood, alone, or stuck in patterns that seem difficult to break? Perhaps you find yourself constantly worrying, struggling in relationships, feeling disconnected from yourself, or carrying the weight of stress and past experiences while trying to keep up with daily life. If so, you are not alone — and you do not have to work through it alone either. As an experienced Licensed Mental Health Counselor with more than 20 years in the mental health field, I provide compassionate, supportive, and personalized telehealth therapy for adults seeking meaningful and lasting change. I understand how difficult it can be to reach out for support, and I strive to create a safe, comfortable, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel truly heard, understood, and supported. My approach is warm, empathetic, and collaborative while also being practical and goal-oriented. Clients often choose to work with me because they are looking for a therapist who combines genuine compassion with extensive clinical experience. I believe therapy should not only provide emotional support, but also help you gain insight, build coping skills, improve relationships, strengthen self-esteem, and move toward the life you want for yourself. I specialize in helping adults manage anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, burnout, emotional overwhelm, life transitions, and relationship difficulties. Using evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), trauma-informed care, and mindfulness-based techniques, I tailor treatment to meet your unique needs and goals. Through secure telehealth sessions, therapy can fit into your life with greater ease, allowing you to receive high-quality care from the comfort and privacy of your own home. Whether you are seeking support during a difficult time or looking to better understand yourself and create lasting change, therapy can help you feel more balanced, empowered, connected, and hopeful. Healing and growth are possible, and I would be honored to support you on that journey.
