Laura Hopf is a licensed mental health counselor in Washington (WA LMHC LH 61544975) with six years of clinical experience. She transitioned into therapy as a second career and regards this work as her life purpose.
Her clinical background includes direct mental health therapy and behavioral counseling for youth, caregivers, teens, and adults presenting with anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, gender identity questions, learning disabilities, and relationship challenges. She has provided both individual and group therapy across community mental health agencies and day treatment settings, and has experience in intensive outpatient and partial hospitalization programs.
Laura views people as shaped by their closest relationships, family systems, environments, and the cumulative moments that bring them to the present. She aims to hold the therapeutic relationship with compassion, respect, and warmth, meeting clients where they are without judgment.
Her approach is integrative and holistic, drawing on Person-Centered, Gestalt, Humanistic, Cognitive-Behavioral, and Dialectical Behavioral therapies. This blend allows her to tailor treatment to each person’s needs and goals, whether the focus is on insight and personal growth or on symptom relief and improved functioning.
Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person treatment.
One major benefit is the flexibility it offers - individuals can connect in the way that suits them best, whether through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability can make it easier to maintain consistent care alongside work, family, and other responsibilities.
Therapists offering online services are licensed professionals, and if someone feels a different therapeutic fit would be better, it is possible to switch providers. For many people, remote therapy provides a practical and effective option for addressing everyday concerns and supporting personal growth.
