Laura Mahoney, Therapist
Laura Mahoney, LICSW, helps adults and seniors across Massachusetts navigate mental health challenges with compassion, insight, and practical strategies. Through individual therapy at LifeStance Health, she supports clients coping with anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions, providing a collaborative and safe space to explore emotions, develop coping skills, and foster resilience. Her approach is grounded in both empathy and evidence-based care, guiding clients toward meaningful and lasting change. She is particularly passionate about supporting individuals experiencing grief, anxiety, and women’s mental health concerns. Laura works closely with clients to address how life transitions, medical conditions, and past experiences influence emotional well-being, helping them develop coping strategies, strengthen self-awareness, and manage challenging thoughts or behaviors. Her work also extends to clients from the LGBTQ+ community, first responders, and military or veteran populations, while offering additional support as needed. Laura integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness practices into her sessions, tailoring interventions to each client’s unique needs. These techniques help clients manage symptoms of ADHD, bipolar disorder, PTSD, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, and post-partum depression or anxiety. Her approach emphasizes skill-building, emotional regulation, and fostering self-compassion, supporting sustainable improvements in mental health and daily functioning. Outside of her clinical practice, Laura enjoys spending time with her dogs and walking outdoors. These activities reflect her belief in balance, mindfulness, and connection with nature, which she brings into her therapeutic work. Laura Mahoney provides individual therapy through LifeStance Health and serves clients throughout Massachusetts.
