About Laurie
Laurie Jolly is a licensed clinical social worker with 38 years of experience in Michigan. She focuses on helping people handle stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and relationship concerns. Laurie emphasizes practical support and respect for each person's strengths and story.
She uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. That helps when intimacy, trust, or repeated relationship problems cause pain. Laurie also draws on acceptance and commitment therapy and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values.
Background and approach
Sessions are grounded in a client-centered way of working. Laurie listens, reflects what she hears, and helps people set small reachable steps. She helps parents manage parenting stress, supports people coping with trauma and abuse, and addresses issues like addiction, anger, and shame.
Laurie has worked with many life changes over nearly four decades. She offers tools for panic, mood problems, ADHD-related struggles, and blending families. She also assists people facing caregiver strain, communication breakdowns, infidelity, or separation concerns.
Her approach is collaborative and straightforward. Laurie helps people identify strengths, try new skills between sessions, and adjust plans as needed. She welcomes conversations in English and can work with international clients by video, phone, chat, or text.

Online support
How Laurie’s approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current connections. Online sessions can help people notice those patterns, practice new ways of relating, and bring fresh responses into ongoing relationships. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people accept uncomfortable feelings while committing to values-based actions; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and building a trusting therapeutic relationship as the foundation for change.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Laurie collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their needs and goals. She reviews what’s helping, adjusts techniques over time, and invites feedback so therapy stays practical and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets therapists and clients use visual cues during deeper conversations. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging offer flexibility for brief check-ins, homework support, or when scheduling makes real-time calls difficult. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family life, and other routines.
