Laurie Jones, LMFT

Laurie Jones is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in Nevada with 25 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and relationship concerns. Laurie creates a calm, respectful space where people can talk about hard things and figure out their next steps.

Her work often focuses on attachment and intimacy issues, loss and grief, and questions about sexual identity and alternative relationship styles. She also supports people dealing with eating struggles, bipolar mood swings, parenting pressures, and major life changes. The aim is practical progress rather than long lectures.

Laurie uses a blend of approaches to match each person’s needs. She draws from cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful patterns and from acceptance-based work to build values-guided action. Client-centered listening shapes the pace and focus of sessions.

In sessions she pays attention to how past relationships affect present feelings and behaviors. Conversations move between understanding patterns and trying small changes people can use right away. Laurie treats each person as the expert on their life and offers tools that fit their situation.

People who come to Laurie can expect clear communication about goals and steady, practical steps toward them. She welcomes diverse life stories, including LGBTQ+ perspectives and alternative sexual cultures, and tailors support so it fits each person’s background and priorities.

How Laurie’s approaches work in online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take action even when feelings are difficult. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and making lasting behavior changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape emotions and reactions, which is helpful for intimacy, abandonment, and communication issues in close relationships. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience; the therapist listens closely, reflects what is heard, and lets the client guide the pace and focus of work.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Laurie will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying things, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan as needed so sessions feel relevant and practical.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins between in-person visits, or offering alternatives to video when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can also use online appointments to keep steady momentum during life transitions and to work on communication skills and coping strategies in day-to-day contexts.
