Compassionate & Competent Biblical Counseling

For women and adolescent girls.

Nice to meet you!

I’m Laura Milbourne, owner and counselor of Laura Hope Counseling, a biblical counseling practice serving Louisville and beyond.

  • Laura is an experienced counselor who demonstrates competence, character and knowledge of God's word. A rare combination.

    Professor of Biblical Counseling, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

  • “Laura brings together Christlike compassion, years of counseling experience, and a commitment to care grounded in God's Word. I have and will continue to recommend her as a counselor.”

    Curtis Solomon, Mdiv, ThM, PhD

    Executive Director of the Biblical Counseling Coalition

  • “As the Counseling Pastor of our church, I have been referring women in our church to Laura with confidence and tremendous success since 2019. She is my number one choice for counseling for two reasons: (1) She uses a biblical counseling methodology and (2) with permission from the counselee, she keeps me up to date with progress reports so we can work together to help the counslee. As a counseling pastor who is committed to God's word and caring for God's people, I highly recommend Laura to you!”

Services

I offer biblical counseling for women and adolescent girls and consultation services for individuals and churches.

Approach

I am committed to a biblical counseling approach that is gospel-centered, clinically-informed and church-partnering. I align with the Christian Counseling and Educational Foundation (CCEF) model of care.

  • "Laura is truly an answer to prayer. I have worked with many counselors over the years (some secular, some Christian) but had never experienced the type of Biblical counseling that Laura introduced me to. Through working with Laura, my understanding of God's love for me has deepened exponentially... I feel so much more equipped to face difficulties.

    -Former counselee

  • "Counseling with Laura was the best thing in my faith life. She is humble and one of the nicest people you will meet. She doesn't judge you and her own relationship with God is quite apparent and admirable. I implore anyone to begin counseling with Laura. She is someone who sincerely wants the best for you."

    -Former counselee

  • "Laura is a gifted counselor who is undoubtedly dedicated to her clients. I felt immediately at ease sharing my struggles with her and she pointed me to the Lord while also providing practical strategies to combat anxiety. Having received counseling throughout my life in various forums, I can say my time with Laura was truly transformative. "

    -Former counselee

  • "My time with Laura was life-giving and life changing. Laura listened, helped me process my thoughts and feelings, and best of all, she pointed me to the truths found in God's Word- powerful and transformative. I am so thankful for my time with Laura!"

    -Former counselee

  • "I thank the Lord often for the way He used Laura in my life. It has been about 18 months since my last session with Laura, and I continue to implement the principles and specific scriptures we walked through at least once a week. As a result of Laura's intentional, prayerful preparation and our deeply impactful time spent together, the feelings of dread that awoke me and intense spikes of anxiety are no longer a regular part of my life. All Glory to God!"

    -Former Counselee

  • "I experienced so much healing and spiritual growth while meeting with Laura, that she's my top recommendation to any friend looking for professional counseling."
