Laura Fidorowicz, LPC, NCC, MAC

On the outside, you look like you have it all together. You are driven, successful, and capable. But on the inside, the pressure to maintain that perfect image is exhausting. You might find yourself procrastinating because the fear of not doing something perfectly is paralyzing, or turning to substances at the end of the night just to quiet a racing mind. When the pressure builds up too much, it shows up as sudden anger, deep exhaustion, or a feeling of being completely stuck during a major life transition.

You don't need a passive listener to just nod along; you need real tools to break this cycle. I specialize in helping high-functioning individuals—from teens facing intense academic pressure to adults navigating stressful careers—manage severe anxiety, untangle substance use, and trade chronic burnout for actual peace of mind. You don't have to keep carrying the weight of perfection alone.

My Approach

Therapy with me is practical, collaborative, and completely free of judgment. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, I combine evidence-based strategies to help you understand the root of your anxiety, depression, and substance use, while giving you tangible coping mechanisms you can actually use between sessions. Whether we are working on anger management, navigating a massive life transition, or unpacking the anxiety driving your procrastination, our sessions will feel active and focused on your goals.

My Background

I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor for 12 years. I treat adolescents (13+) and adults up to age 64. My clinical focus is deeply rooted in treating the intersection of high anxiety, perfectionism, and the unhealthy coping mechanisms (like substance use) that often accompany them.

Logistics & Insurance

To make care as accessible as possible, I partner with Headway to accept a variety of insurance panels: Aetna, Capital Blue Cross, Highmark BCBS PA, Horizon BCBS NJ, Carelon, Cigna, Geisinger, and IBX. I also offer OON options and sliding scale for private pay. I offer convenient telehealth sessions so you can easily fit therapy into your busy schedule.
