About Laurie
Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York with 17 years of experience, Laurie Regna focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. She sees adolescents and adults and brings experience from varied clinical settings to both short-term and longer-term work.
Laurie uses an eclectic approach that adapts to what each person needs. She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and practical strategies rather than a single method. Sessions are meant to identify immediate concerns and build skills that can be used between meetings.
Her background includes work with behavior problems, emotion regulation, anger management, depressive disorders, anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress, and college-related stressors. That experience informs how she structures sessions and prioritizes what to work on first. She aims to help people notice patterns, try different coping tools, and track small changes.
In sessions Laurie focuses on clear goals and concrete steps. She helps people develop emotion regulation skills, reduce avoidance, and practice new ways of responding to stress. Homework and short exercises may be suggested to reinforce what is discussed during meetings.
Practical matters such as scheduling and session format are handled up front so clients know what to expect. Laurie asks new clients to complete a short intake so she can match approaches to the person’s situation and goals before the first session.

How evidence-based approaches shape online sessions
Laurie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and focuses on approaches that produce clear, actionable steps. Two notable methods she draws on are core skills training for emotion regulation and trauma-focused strategies. Emotion regulation work teaches simple tools to notice feelings, slow down reactions, and practice alternative responses; it is useful for anxiety, anger, and stress management. Trauma-focused strategies help people process distressing memories in manageable ways and reduce symptoms that interfere with daily life.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Laurie collaborates with each person to decide which techniques fit their situation, goals, and pace. She starts with what feels most useful and adjusts methods as progress is observed and preferences emerge.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since the biography does not list specific formats. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy day, shorten travel time, and allow for quicker check-ins when needed. They can also support steady progress through regular, scheduled meetings and between-session exercises that build practical skills.
