Laurie Pittman

Laurie Pittman is a licensed mental health professional who practices in both Florida and Louisiana. She holds counseling credentials that allow her to work as a mental health counselor and a marriage and family therapist in Florida, and as a professional counselor in Louisiana.

With 12 years of clinical experience, Laurie has worked with adults, children and families facing concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, life transitions and trauma. She also provides care for a broader range of issues including relationship and intimacy difficulties, self-esteem struggles, addictions, grief, anger management, career-related problems, attention differences, mood disorders, and compassion fatigue.

Her counseling style is strength-based and integrative, drawing on evidence-informed methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) so treatment can be adapted to each person’s needs. Laurie enjoys helping people identify personal strengths and possibilities that support healing, growth and lasting change.

Before entering the counseling field she spent more than a decade as an educator, bringing that classroom experience to her therapeutic work. Laurie approaches therapy as a collaborative process that prioritizes building rapport, setting meaningful goals and moving toward those goals with warmth, respect and encouragement. She welcomes the opportunity to support others as they explore new paths forward.
