I provide compassionate psychotherapy for children, adolescents, and adults. With more than thirty years of experience, I listen carefully and offer warmth, kindness, humor, and perspective. I believe that each of us has wisdom and creativity within us and hope to help you find and access yours.I avoid diagnostic labels and preconceptions. I work with love. I enjoy helping people with relationships of all kinds. "A friend is someone who hears the song in your heart and sings it to you when you've forgotten the melody." While therapy is different than friendship, this aspect is the same.

I have been a practicing psychotherapist for 18 years, working with clients from 17-70+ years of age: individuals, families, couples (including same sex couples), those from diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds, as well as parents and their adult children seeking to heal old wounds, re-establish connection, and improve their relationship. Whatever your objectives (even when these are not clearly identified), whether it is to identify and change limiting beliefs, thoughts and behaviors, work through deep grief buried long before it was possible to understand or process, or having problems with relationships. I can help you..

Psychotherapy is one way to promote change which examines attitude, feelings, emotions and motivation when the individual, couple or family experience is less than funtional. The work is mainly to encourage the patient to talk and explore their feelings, beliefs, and thoughts which develops integrated mindful awareness. In other words emotional growth. Additionally, this is a process which seeks to help gain an increased capacity for choice, through which the patient becomes more autonomous,functional and self-determined. Dr. Laine strongly believes that this challenging work is best accomplished in an atmosphere of safety, caring, support and is dedicated to providing this for all patients.

Life is a journey with many twists and turns. Through the therapeutic process, I am honored to walk side by side with individuals during times of need. I am passionate about honoring each individual's journey and soul path. I use an integrated and intuitive therapeutic approach to assist with tapping into and building upon current strengths and skills. Additionally, I assist with the processing of current or past traumas, patterns, behaviors, memories and dreams in order to support each person toward their individual vision of wholeness, healing and well being.

I provide competent, compassionate mental health care with a flare of comic relief. Life is precious and absurd, I appreciate the exploration of it all. I approach the psychological work from a non-dualistic lens. I believe each of us have inherent wisdom and that we all need support and reminders to more readily access our internal and external resources. I look forward to walking side by side you on your journey of growth, reflection and healing. I'm skilled at providing in-depth mental health assessments/diagnostics to support client's in better understanding their challenges and I provide congruent coping strategies/treatment.

ln my work with children, teens, and adults I provide compassionate, honest, relationship focused psychotherapy. My aim is to support you and your family to develop the skills to navigate your life with safety, awareness, and introspection. I provide an attuned, warm presence to support you in addressing depression, anxiety, relationship struggles, life transitions, trauma, and grief & loss issues. My somatic (body-based) approach supports mindfulness, and allows for the integration of body, mind, and spirit. I enjoy using expressive arts and dreamwork to work with the unconscious self.

It takes courage to address pain, childhood wounds, traumas and unresolved beliefs and patterns which negatively impact relationships, emotions, goals, motivation and sense of self. I deeply believe in one's innate knowledge and capacity to heal, and aspire toward wholeness. I teach simple tools and practices, in addition to supporting you on your journey. This empowers your vision, your heart, and your perception of the world around you, creating healthier relationships and increased joy. My practice includes: relationship issues, depression, trauma, addiction, family conflict, grief, life changes and children's behavioral issues.

Hi! ****I'M NOW ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS**** Are you needing support and guidance through this challenging time right now? Are you looking to find peace and clarity? Could you use some help navigating a divorce or break-up? Are there parenting issues that need to be worked through? Is there a part of you that really needs some attention and counseling but is scared to reach out? Please call me directly for a free phone consultation. Let's see if we are a good fit...

My job as your therapist is to help you connect to and listen to your own wisdom for navigating what troubles you, using my 10+ years of clinical experience, and my personal values of openness, non-judgment & compassion. Whether you are looking for support during a time of high stress, for help sifting through a lifetime of traumas, or for guidance on working with a mental illness, I will listen, and work to help you find the right practices, thinking patterns and personal changes to help clear your path forward. We ALL need support from time to time.

I enjoy walking alongside individuals, couples, and families as they navigate through life's difficult pathways to those of change, healing, and growth. Deciding to come to counseling is a courageous decision which offers the opportunity to focus on oneself and to sort out the issues. I help: couples and families shift from fighting with each other to enjoying each other; individuals to step away from damaging behaviors and patterns; and adolescents to gain and enhance their strengths and identity. I provide a safe, supportive environment to help you take the next right step towards a happier and healthier life.

You're so tired of feeling this way. You're ready to start feeling better. You've been struggling for quite a while with stress, overwhelm, unhappiness, worry, insecurity, or have had a trauma that left you feeling like you've lost your direction, like you've lost who you are. Have you tried everything you know but just don't know what to do anymore? We can work together to help you find understanding and perspective, and then work on learning the skills you need to make the change in your life that will make the difference.

Welcome. Do you want to feel supported, at ease, connected? Do you want to be at your best? Come see me online or in-person! I'm known for my warm, relational approach and holistic, eclectic style, integrating talk therapy with mindfulness, expressive art, hypnotherapy, dreamwork, and more. I provide individualized treatment, personally tailored to your specific needs and desires. Currently, I'm serving a diverse adult population focusing on a variety of areas (creativity, spirituality, trauma, ADHD, anxiety, postpartum, periods of transition, and grief/loss, as well as recovery).

Caught in an unhappy relationship? Feeling alone and stuck in cycles of grief, depression, anxiety, anger? Lost trust in a loved one? Longing for intimacy, connection, openness? My commitment is to help you find your powers to create positive change in your life. Together we can change dysfunctional patterns that lead to addictions, mental disorders, and confusion - that result in issues of depression, grief, anxiety, low self esteem - and promote healthy life choices. Together we can heal the wounds of infidelity, resentment, separateness, and find the way back to healthy intimacy, sexuality, communication and deep connection.

Are you struggling with depression, anxiety or difficult life experiences? You may feel stuck in the aftermath of trauma or have trouble creating healthy and rewarding relationships. Or maybe your past is getting in the way of you being your authentic self and meeting life's challenges. I would be honored to help you or your loved one to work through your pain, fear, or shame and learn how to live more fully in the present. I will work with you to discover and follow your own goals and values with compassion, humor, and open-mindedness.

At this time I am not taking new clients. I offer in person and tele therapy. My goal is to provide a safe and caring environment. I enjoy working with a wide variety of people. I specialize in those who are struggling with depression, anxiety, chronic pain, addiction, trauma and PTSD. I work with clients who are dealing with opioid and/or benzodiazepine abuse/dependency. My style is a common sense, straight forward approach. I believe that the connection between the therapist and client is the most important piece in the therapeutic process.

Looking for spiritual and/or personal development? Would you like to improve chronic pain or remove painful emotions stored in your body? Or understand what your dreams are trying to tell you? Then I can help you! I provide a non-judgmental and person-centered approach in a safe space to organize your thoughts and emotions. I honor that each person has their own journey and am committed to helping you work through your unique personal process. People are complex and must be seen as whole beings with integrated physical, social, psychological, and spiritual qualities. I seek to help guide you toward your own empowerment and healing.

I practice holistic psychotherapy; I see each individual as a whole system (body, heart and mind) existing in a social/cultural context. I believe everything is interconnected and each piece is important. Yet we often live in a trance of disconnection; from ourselves, each other, and the planet. When we deny the interrelatedness of all things we suffer and struggle. The mind dominates the body, the body betrays the mind, the mind punishes the body, the body exhausts the mind, and so on. Healing involves bringing these inner wars to a truce.

Welcome! If you are overwhelmed from struggling with your feelings, going through a challenging transition, or carrying the weight of your past, I hope that you will consider allowing me to join you on your path to a more balanced life. Starting therapy may be exciting or intimidating—wherever you fall on that spectrum, my goal is to make therapy as accessible and beneficial as possible.

We are defined by our stories. Working from a Narrative Therapy perspective helps me to support clients in a way that is unique and different from most traditional therapy perspectives. YOU are not the problem, the PROBLEM is the problem, and it may be time to develop new tools and skills to develop a different story for your life, one that you authored and can live by. Lets work together on helping you to develop the new story that will empower you to live the life you want!

Are you there for me? Do I matter to you? Will you come to me when I call? These are the hidden cries of vulnerability that underlie the distress experienced in most adult love relationships. They often come however, in the form of an angry protest such as, "Why didn't you complete the list on the refrigerator?" Or, as in a withdrawn defeat, "I give up, since I can never please her." I can help you understand and access your underlying attachment needs and fears and begin to communicate more authentically to your parnter thus increasing safe emotional connection,
