Laura Thompson, Ph.D., LPC

Hello!
I've spent my entire career (30 years) working with undergraduate and graduate university students, both in the United States and abroad. I've worked in several University Counseling Centers and also teach graduate courses in counseling for NYU.

During this time, I've had the opportunity to work with a wide range of individuals, including people from diverse backgrounds, who are grappling with many different issues: transition to college, relationship struggles, family issues, substance abuse, anxiety, depression, identity, sexual orientation, grief/loss, and existential challenges.

I've worked with student-athletes, international students, people of color, and LGBTQIA individuals, members of Greek Life, and graduate/doctoral students.

I am a down-to-earth, insightful, non-judgmental, REAL, compassionate counselor. I love working with college students! I've been told by many clients that I'm easy to talk to. I will listen, support you, provide honest feedback, and help you to navigate your challenges effectively so you can be your best self as you pursue your educational and life goals.

I can meet with you in person or on Zoom. I look forward to hearing from you!
