(Ontario-wide therapy). Hello & welcome. Is your mental load building? Maybe the weight of your loss or trauma feels incredibly heavy to carry and memories are confronting you in waves. You feel anxious, irritable and low in energy and want someone to walk alongside your struggles with you in a warm, respectful, and skilled way. Through both personal & professional experience, my passion formed for helping people better understand their feelings, pain & struggles. Listening with true empathy and attentiveness, I help people work through their stress & anxiety, depression, loss, moral injury, trauma & PTSD, among other challenges.
Understanding that trust is so very important, I keep impacts of trauma & research in mind. Your struggles will be placed in your life context, not just your symptoms. You will learn new coping tools and be provided a non-judgmental space to process what you are going through, so you can journey toward a life that is more aligned with what matters to you.
Reaching out is an act of courage and self-respect. You are invited to call or email me to set up a free & non-judgmental 15-30 minute phone consult to explore how I might best be able to support you and help foster meaningful change in your life. You are also welcome to visit my website, linked in my profile, to learn more about my practice. Kindly, Laura

Here is a quote that speaks to me as a therapist: "We think we listen, but very rarely do we listen with real understanding, true empathy. Yet listening, of this very special kind, is one of the most potent forces for change that I know". - Carl Rogers

I happily unpack & explain what these therapy approaches and acronyms mean. I use an integrative approach which means I often pull from several therapy styles/theories to meet your needs. I also use a holistic approach, considering your mental health in the context of many aspects of your life such as: physical health, social, spiritual, and more. Please don't hesitate to reach out with questions.
