Therapists in Orting, WA

We all struggle in life at one point or another. However, reaching out for support can take a lot of strength and courage. For this reason, I strive to provide a safe, accepting, non-judgmental environment where you can openly explore your struggles and receive the support and guidance you need. Many times our past experiences have left us with wounds that become aggravated, causing difficulites in our relationships and daily lives. Together, we will reflect upon your emotional states, core beliefs and sources of distress to gain deeper awareness and skills for positive change and healing in these areas.

I'm a solution focused therapist meaning I help you problem-solve to tackle the issues that are bothering you.

Talk therapy is great, but what many of the people I work with have missed in past therapy experiences is how to implement what they have learned about themselves into their real life. Self-regulation is key and after establishing a solid foundation using skills training for increasing distress tolerance and emotion regulation, I work with people to get at the root of the problems they are experiencing by using EMDR therapy and other interventions that address the core stuff, which is often the stuff that has kept us stuck in patterns that hurt. From there, we can work on improving your relationships and personal development.

There are moments in our lives when we know we're done; done with a job, a relationship, a belief system, a way of life. At these moments, there is a choice to be made - retreat and play it safe, or move forward into a new way of being?

In all stages of life, we undergo changes, transitions can be difficult. Lauralie can assist in smoothing out the anxieties or depression from loss with these changes. Working through grief, loss, divorce, or maturing through the stages of life you can find renewal of self. The anxiety is a fear of an unknown future, one can feel the fear and go forward as therapy will guide you through the uncertainty with your strengths and empowerment. Life was not meant to be a struggle with chronic pain, don't let pain stop your activities and pursuits.

My approach as a Jungian analyst/psychotherapist is to facilitate foremost a trusting relationship offering a safe healing environment with my office in my home facing the Olympic National Park. Carl Jung stated: " It is the privilege of a lifetime to become who you truly are." Most people come to therapy seeking relief from depression, anxiety, life transitions, grief, and relationship/family concerns. The clinical process is to identify your unique ways of coping and healing through these life concerns/traumas that occur for most of us at some point. My primary focus is Psychoanalysis/ Psychodynamic and Family Systems therapy.

My practice is rooted in the idea that symptoms such as anxiety, disruption, or discontent can guide us in life if we step beyond formulas and certainties, toward a more curious and imaginative mode of being. By artfully seeking to understand emotional suffering, and through deepening relational connection, we can arrive at relief and healing. Uncovering and accommodating what has been previously outside of awareness releases meaning and allows for greater freedom of thought, self-expression, and wholeness.
