Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Support
Laura Fortune uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to the issues clients bring, emphasizing practical strategies and emotional understanding. One approach focuses on skills-based work - helping people build coping tools for cravings, strong emotions, and relationship tensions, which can be especially useful for addictions and parenting challenges. Another approach is trauma-informed work - creating a paced environment to process painful experiences and reduce their impact on daily life, often benefiting those affected by abuse, grief, or dissociation. A family-focused approach explores patterns between family members and supports clearer communication and boundaries to address blended family issues and codependency.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Laura works collaboratively with each client to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time as progress and priorities change so the work remains relevant and effective.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people with busy schedules or caring responsibilities. These options make it easier to access regular support from registered professionals without travel, and they allow therapy to continue in ways that suit each person’s life and comfort level.
