About Laurel

Laurel Boyer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado with 15 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and grief, and she lists anger among her focus areas. Laurel helps people handle big emotions tied to life changes and relationships.

Laurel uses straightforward, person-focused work to help clients understand what keeps old patterns active. Sessions often include talking through recent events, tracking emotional triggers, and learning practical ways to respond differently in the moment. She pays attention to how life transitions like divorce, job change, or seasonal shifts affect mood.

Her background includes approaches that draw on a client's present experience and deeper meaning. Techniques range from mindful practices that calm the body to imagery and depth-oriented methods that look at personal symbols and life themes. Hypnotherapy may be used as a tool when appropriate to access focused attention and relaxation.

Laurel regularly supports people dealing with guilt, shame, social anxiety, compassion fatigue, and the stresses of caring roles or career strain. She also works with young adult issues and women's concerns, addressing communication problems and relationship strain with clear steps and exercises.

People who meet with Laurel can expect a collaborative approach. She helps clients set realistic goals, try out new responses, and build steady coping skills they can use outside sessions.

How sessions work

How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on clear listening and reflecting back what a person says. Online sessions using this approach provide space to sort feelings, identify needs, and try small changes between meetings. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness and breathing techniques to lower reactivity and calm the body; these tools are easy to practice outside sessions and can reduce sudden angry responses.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Laurel will collaborate with clients to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level. That means trying a few techniques, checking how they land, and adjusting the mix based on practical results and personal preference.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people use guided mindfulness exercises and imagery practice at home between meetings, which supports steady progress without promising specific outcomes.
