About Laura
Laura Chilson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma. She draws on five years of clinical experience and previous roles in social services and school counseling to help people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, addiction concerns, and major life changes. She uses Attachment-based approaches to look at how early bonds and relationship patterns affect current feelings and behavior.
Laura also uses client-centered methods to keep sessions focused on the person's priorities and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts that feed anxiety or low mood.
Background and approach
Sessions are practical and aimed at skills people can use between meetings. Her background includes work as a social services specialist, a life coach, and experience in education as a school counselor. That variety informs a flexible style that blends support, problem-solving, and coping strategies.
Laura adapts her pace to match what each person needs. In sessions she focuses on relationship dynamics, parenting stress, trauma and abuse recovery, and emotional challenges such as depression, bipolar symptoms, and sleep problems. She also helps with issues tied to adoption and foster care, abandonment, blended family concerns, chronic illness, and immigration stress.
Laura offers phone, video, live chat, and text-based messaging formats. She encourages people to share what matters most and to set small, realistic goals. The work is collaborative and paced to fit a person’s life.

Online support
How attachment work and skills translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships shape present reactions and trust. It helps people notice patterns in relationships, feel more understood, and practice new ways of relating when old responses no longer work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead - the therapist reflects back concerns and supports the goals the person sets for themselves. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches ways to spot and shift unhelpful thoughts and to try different behaviors that reduce anxiety or depression.Finding the right fit is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose which approaches to try first, checks in on what is helping, and adjusts methods based on goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps match techniques to real-life needs rather than assuming one approach fits everyone.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, skills practice between sessions, or when written thinking feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules.
