About Laura
Laura Wiseman is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and mood disorders. She also supports those facing parenting strain, family concerns, relationship conflict, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, and ADHD. Laura uses a warm, engaging style to make it easier to begin talking about hard things.
She focuses on practical steps as well as understanding what matters most to each person. Sessions tend to be collaborative and direct, with time spent setting clear, achievable goals. Laura draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and change patterns of behavior. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to highlight strengths and quick strategies that can ease daily strain.
Her background includes two decades of work in clinical social work, with a career that has included supporting people through fertility-related stress, domestic violence consequences, and post-traumatic stress. The credential LCSW stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker and reflects her practice in New Jersey.
Laura commonly blends approaches depending on what a client needs in the moment. She may incorporate elements of the Gottman Method when conversations involve relationship patterns, or client-centered practices when people need a listening space to sort priorities. The goal is practical progress rather than a fixed agenda.

How therapy approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following the client's lead. It gives space for people to talk through parenting stress, grief, or relationship worries while the therapist reflects and helps clarify goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. It can help with anxiety, depression, ADHD-related routines, and mood regulation by teaching concrete skills to use between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and help decide whether more reflective, skills-based, or relationship-focused methods fit best. That decision is revisited as needs change so the plan stays practical and relevant.
