About Laurie
Laurie Steurer helps people who are facing heavy emotions and big life changes. She is a licensed clinical social worker with 22 years of experience and brings a calm, steady presence to difficult moments. Her work focuses on grief, coping with life transitions, compassion fatigue, and feelings of guilt and shame.
Laurie aims to make the first steps feel manageable. She listens closely and uses straightforward questions to help people name what matters most.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical tools and small changes that make daily life easier. Her approach balances warmth with clear guidance. Conversations may include ways to cope with intense emotions, strategies to reduce overwhelm, and steps to restore everyday routines.
Laurie helps people find ways to carry forward after loss or major change. Over two decades of practice have shaped a style that is direct but compassionate. Clients can expect a steady guide who helps sort through painful thoughts and build simple coping plans.
Laurie draws on experience rather than jargon to keep conversations useful. She practices in Colorado and offers sessions in English. People who want to begin can follow a short matching process to connect and then schedule sessions that fit their needs.
Approaches that guide online care
Laurie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage grief and difficult emotions. One common approach focuses on processing loss through guided conversations and memory work; this helps people make sense of what happened and find ways to honor what was lost. Another approach emphasizes building coping skills for life changes, using simple, practical exercises that reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day functioning.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client decide collaboratively which methods suit the client’s needs, goals, and preferences, and they adjust over time if something isn’t helping. This makes the process flexible and focused on real outcomes the person wants to achieve.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different rhythms of life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that helps. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits the day. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick updates, focused problem-solving, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These formats make therapy easier to attend from varied schedules and locations.
