My name is Laura King, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) located in Georgia. I received a Master’s degree in Community Counseling from Columbus State University and a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from The University of North Georgia. I have over 10 years of experience in the field of mental health counseling in both inpatient and outpatient settings as well as within the prison system. Throughout my years as a therapist, I have worked with clients who simply need to talk through life events that they have not adjusted to well all the way to clients who have significant and debilitating mental illnesses. Most recently, I worked for over 3 years in a women's prison treating women who have dual-diagnoses (both a substance problem and a mental health problem) My theoretical orientation is based in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I focus on helping clients identify how their thought patterns influence their emotions and behaviors. It is important to me that my clients feel supported during therapy and build upon their strengths to make the positive changes they desire. In recent years I have begun integrating a holistic approach to my counseling practice. I received a certification in Holistic Nutrition in order to provide my clients with increased knowledge of how their daily nutrition impacts their mental health as well as overall wellness.

I am a LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker), licensed in the state of Georgia, with 20 years of experience. My work has been primarily with individuals and families in outpatient settings as well as in-home therapy. As a result, a large amount of my experience has been to address interpersonal and relationship issues, conflict resolution, parenting issues, substance abuse, and trauma. I have also worked to address various mental health diagnoses to include: depression, anxiety, and various learning disorders. I do not ascribe to the idea that there is a "one size fits all" approach to anything. We are all uniquely our own, with our own experiences, and our own set of strengths. I feel it is my job to walk beside you to build on the strengths you currently have to develop tools you need to address your area of concern. I pull a great deal from the ecological perspective, and use cognitive behavioral and rational-emotive counseling approaches. However, I will pull from a variety of treatment modalities depending on what will work best for your identified areas of focus. I am encouraging and warm and very honest in my approach. Tackling areas of your life where you would like to make changes can seem daunting at times, but I am confident that together we can bring about positive change and teach you the skills to propel you forward in your journey in a positive way!

16 years offering treatment
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia. I graduated in 2004 from Richmont Graduate University. Since that time I have worked with people of all ages and numerous concerns. I particularly enjoy working with those individuals suffering from grief, trauma, and process addictions such as pornography. I believe a client centered approach is crucial regardless of the therapeutic interventions used. Research consistently shows that the therapeutic relationship itself (rather than the technique used) is what produces most meaningful change. In terms of ideologies I often use CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy). I am also trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing).
