About Laura Aiken

Laura Aiken is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia who supports adolescents and adults in navigating stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and the lingering effects of trauma and abuse. She draws on an integrative style that mixes established therapies such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and cognitive behavioral techniques with traditional talk therapy and nature-based practices when appropriate, tailoring work to each person rather than using a one-size-fits-all model.

Her professional background is rooted in addiction treatment, including several years collaborating with drug courts and serving at a local recovery home, which informs her understanding of substance use, relapse risk, and recovery dynamics. Laura meets clients where they are and adapts session focus to address issues like self-esteem, attachment and abandonment concerns, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and life transitions. She works with clients age 13 and up and emphasizes practical strategies alongside reflective exploration to help people build resilience and move toward goals at a sustainable pace.

Integrative Therapies and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the individual's experience and emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration to help people explore their needs and values. This approach supports clients who are working through identity, self-esteem, or life-purpose concerns by centering their perspective in the work. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines skills training with validation to help people manage intense emotions, reduce impulsive behaviors, and improve relationships - it is often used when chronic emotion dysregulation or self-destructive patterns are present. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and acceptance skills that can reduce rumination, ease anxiety, and improve coping with chronic stress or pain.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Laura partners with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, strengths, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so the work stays practical and relevant to the client's changing needs.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for people balancing work, family, or health concerns. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access therapy from different locations within her service area, and choose the communication mode that feels most comfortable for the individual, supporting consistent progress over time.
