About Laura
Laura France is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, parenting challenges, and major life changes. Laura also focuses on caregiver stress, control issues, communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, isolation, and self-love.
Laura uses straightforward, practical approaches in sessions. She listens to the specific problem a person brings and helps them identify small, actionable changes. Sessions often cover ways to manage anxious or low moods, improve communication, and set clearer boundaries in relationships and parenting roles.
A common thread in her work is addressing guilt and shame. She helps people name those feelings and examine where they come from. That can include looking at how past expectations, faith, or family messages shape present choices.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy are part of her approach. CBT is used to spot unhelpful thoughts and test them against reality. Solution-Focused work emphasizes practical steps to change what isn’t working now.
Over the years Laura has helped people build coping skills for daily stresses and navigate difficult transitions. She encourages realistic experiments in behavior, clearer communication practices, and ways to lessen self-blame. To begin, she asks about the current problem and what a manageable first step would look like.
How her approaches shape online sessions
Laura uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and test unhelpful thoughts. CBT focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions, and can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and guilt-related thinking.She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set concrete goals and try small changes quickly. This approach concentrates on what works now and on practical steps people can take between sessions to reduce stress or improve communication.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Laura will talk with a client about goals, preferences, and what has helped in the past. Together they decide whether CBT, Solution-Focused techniques, or a mix makes the most sense and adjust as work progresses.
The practical benefit of online sessions is fitting therapy into everyday life. Confirm the specific session formats before booking so you know what options are available. Online work can make it easier to schedule around work or caregiving, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so therapy fits into a busy week.
