Laura Husband - Mental Health Counselor | The Center for Internet & Technology Addiction

17 years experience

About Laura Husband

I am Licensed Clinical Social Worker and clinical supervisor with 17 years experience in community mental health settings.
I have worked with a wide variety of symptoms and diagnoses including those struggling with depression, anxiety, self harm, anger management, parenting difficulties, stress, family and relationship conflicts. In addition, most of the people I have worked with have experienced some type of trauma including physical, emotional, and sexual abuse/assault.

I am a very compassionate, person centered, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and trauma informed clinician. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is the most influential aspect of involvement in counseling. I use a combination of motivational interviewing, solution focused techniques, CBT, DBT , IFS and mindfulness techniques to offer support, identify and work toward the most desired areas of growth and to provide proven and effective techniques to provide relief and lasting change.

I would be honored to work with you and journey toward a brighter and more fulfilled future.

“Quite frankly, I was initially hesitant to seek any form of counselling. And I was especially nervous when I first matched with Laura because I did not know what to expect. Fortunately, Laura not only help me through each of the life struggles I have been dealing with over the past months but the frequency of my anxiety has reduced significantly. Prior to therapy with Laura I was always very anxious and had a hard time dealing with my thoughts and emotions. But Laura always offered incredible emotional support, listened thoroughly and helped me work on better approaches to what I had been struggling with. Additionally, I would highly recommend Laura and/or Betterhelp to anyone who is seeking counseling.”
