Laura Stewart, LCSW- Counseling for Trauma & Anxiety & Relationships

Helping Adults, Parents & Couples Heal & Grow | In-Person in Rockwall, Texas & Virtual Therapy Across Texas

Life doesn’t come with a roadmap—and when patterns, conflict, or past wounds keep showing up, it can feel overwhelming. As both a therapist and a mom, I understand how hard it can be to balance responsibilities, relationships, and your own well-being. I’m Laura Stewart, and I specialize in helping adults, parents, and couples break free from old cycles, rebuild trust in themselves, and create more grounded, fulfilling lives.

I provide in-person sessions in Rockwall, TX, and virtual therapy across Texas. My clients describe therapy with me as supportive, practical, and eye-opening—where they gain tools to make meaningful changes while also feeling truly understood.

Background & Experience

I bring extensive experience working with families, communities, and individuals across a wide range of challenges. My background includes:

• Working clinically and personally with children and adults with ADHD, ASD, and other developmental differences, including those diagnosed later in life

• Supporting clients with sleep disorders and medical concerns that affect daily functioning

• Community-based services and case management for families and individuals

• Supporting psychiatric issues in teens and mental health needs in adults

• Helping clients navigate trauma, PTSD, abuse, and recovery from toxic or narcissistic relationships

• Addressing communication difficulties, relational patterns, and verbal/emotional abuse

• Assisting families through high-conflict situations, divorce, custody, and co-parenting challenges

• Supporting women’s issues, including self-worth, boundaries, and life transitions

This experience, combined with my lived experience as a parent, gives me a unique perspective to help clients navigate life’s complexities with empathy, practical strategies, and understanding.
