Laurie White, LSCSW

Laurie White is a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker, LSCSW, practicing in Kansas with eight years of experience. She focuses on addiction, family concerns, trauma and abuse, and parenting challenges. Laurie also addresses stress, anxiety, grief, sleeping problems, anger, self-esteem, and related life transitions.

She uses clear, direct conversation to identify what is causing day-to-day strain. Sessions tend to look at how relationships and past experiences shape current reactions. Laurie draws on approaches such as attachment work and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people recognize patterns and try different ways of responding.

Many people contact her about tangled family dynamics, caregiver stress, or problems after separation and divorce. She also supports those managing substance use, grief, or burnout from compassionate work. Laurie pays attention to how attachment and communication habits affect parenting and close relationships.

Her approach is client-centered and practical. That means listening first, then offering tools that clients can use between meetings. Techniques may include mindfulness exercises, skills from dialectical behavior work, and motivational strategies for changing behavior.

Sessions are intended to be straightforward and focused on next steps. Laurie helps people set short-term goals and practices to try at home. To begin, the site matching questionnaire is the first step toward arranging an initial appointment.
