LCSW

Hello!

My name is Laura Worth. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Missouri with over 10 years in the mental health field and an additional 20 years in the health field. I have experience working with adults who have a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, grief and end of life issues, life transitions, relationship issues and career change.

My number one goal is to make clients feel welcome, accepted, valued, and comfortable disclosing personal and sensitive information. I utilize a person centered approach with unconditional positive regard and a warm compassionate style. I use humor when appropriate and I communicate well.

I respect the courage that it takes to seek help and I welcome the opportunity to assist you in living your best life.

About online counseling

Affordable.: Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.: Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.: There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
