About Laine
Laine Briggs is a licensed marriage and family therapist with ten years of clinical experience. She holds LMFT credentials and is licensed in Georgia and Washington. Laine aims to make the first step into therapy feel straightforward and manageable for people who are nervous or unsure.
She focuses on relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, and self-esteem. Laine also supports people facing communication problems, panic, personality struggles, and issues linked to autism or multicultural backgrounds.
Background and approach
She has worked with survivors of sexual assault and with those processing family of origin wounds. Laine’s approach centers on building a calm, nonjudgmental space for people to speak honestly about what they feel. She listens first and helps name emotions so they become easier to work with.
Sessions include practical conversation, reflection, and skills you can try between meetings. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy and attachment-based ideas to help people understand patterns in close relationships. Laine also draws on client-centered techniques and mindfulness to slow down strong feelings and make clearer choices.
When appropriate, she brings in principles from the Gottman Method to address relationship dynamics. Laine offers services in English and Spanish and accepts clients outside the United States. If you feel overwhelmed by starting therapy, she encourages taking small steps like completing a short questionnaire to find a good match and then scheduling an initial session.

Online support
Therapy approaches that work online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and shift the emotional patterns that keep them stuck in painful cycles. It is useful when relationships feel distant or when strong emotions keep repeating. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current connections and helps people change insecure patterns into more predictable ways of relating. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and following the client's pace so people feel heard and able to explore what matters most.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Laine will talk with each person about what feels most important and which methods match their goals and comfort level. She adjusts strategies as work progresses so the plan fits the person's needs rather than forcing a single model.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are good for full conversations and visual cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, brief live chat can be useful for check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives, across time zones, or when leaving home is difficult.
