Laura Bianchini

Laura Bianchini is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) based in Ohio. She offers a warm, nonjudgmental presence and helps people facing anxiety, depression, relationship strain, body image concerns, and eating or sleep difficulties. Her style is compassionate and practical, aimed at helping clients make steady progress at their own pace.

With 12 years of clinical experience and a master’s degree from John Carroll University, Laura blends evidence-based methods with mindfulness and movement practices. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), motivational interviewing, and client-centered approaches to meet each person where they are. She also draws on meditation and yoga techniques when they fit a client’s goals.

In sessions she focuses on small, doable steps. That might mean trying a new skill between visits, noticing thoughts and reactions, or practicing brief mindfulness exercises during a check-in. She works with issues such as stress, coping with life changes, addictions, grief, intimacy-related concerns, self-esteem, ADHD, and caregiving strain.

Laura emphasizes collaboration. She helps clients set clear goals and checks in on progress regularly. Her aim is to build problem-solving skills, boost confidence, and support long-term change.

She offers online support and asks people to confirm current session options before booking. Sessions are conducted in English and are organized so they can fit into busy lives.

How her approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and committing to actions that align with personal values; it can help when someone feels stuck or avoids difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses simple experiments to test new ways of responding to stress and anxiety. Client-centered therapy centers on listening and empathy, giving people space to tell their story and decide what changes matter most.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Laura works collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a person’s needs and goals. She adapts techniques over time, checking in on what helps and what doesn’t so the plan stays useful and realistic.

Online sessions are presented as a way to fit therapy into daily life, such as avoiding travel, scheduling brief check-ins during a lunch break, or keeping continuity when routines change. Because session formats are set by the practice, people should confirm current options before booking. The focus is on making therapy practical and workable for busy schedules while using ACT, CBT, and client-centered listening to address concerns like stress, eating and body image struggles, grieving, and coping with life changes.
