You're feeling disconnected, like life as you're living it has lost purpose and meaning. It's even hard to name the exact discomfort and pain.

Does it feel challenging to advocate for yourself, or to voice your needs/desires? Maybe you’re even thinking: “What are my needs or desires?” Does people-pleasing show up when you’re anxious or unsure?

My passion lies in sitting with you through your current challenges, centering your lived experiences, and building your toolbox for honoring and moving through your emotions. You deserve kindness, warmth, and a loving relationship with yourself.

Want better relationships? Want to be more confident and focused at work? Want better sex? I have been working with clients to help them manage their moods, control their behavior and reach their greater potential for 20 years. My clients have ranged from those suffering from uncontrolled schizophrenia and newly diagnosed bipolar disorder to corporate executives struggling to manage the stress of million dollar deals. I enjoy working with couples and families to help them build happier lives together.

Each client comes to therapy with their own unique experiences and resources, and I am passionate about working together to discover clients’ strengths and highlighting their resiliencies. I work collaboratively with clients to help them navigate their pain and emerge with more insights and self-compassion, while still honoring their past experiences and holding hopeful space for their future. Additionally, I believe in the power of authenticity and self-acceptance, as well as how a strong, supportive therapeutic relationship can greatly contribute to client success.

I am a counselor who specializes in helping clients achieve their goals. I offer a judgment-free, unconventional approach to counseling as I believe therapy should be tailored to the person asking for help. I firmly believe everyone does things in their own unique way and time so honing in on self-identified strengths assists me with helping clients improve upon what they may consider their "challenges". I also assist my clients with getting in tune with those hidden strengths they may be unaware of. The hardest part of therapy is getting started. Book a session and take a chance. It is the only way to be the change you wish to see.

Hi! I'm Laura Joplin, LMSW, and my foundational therapeutic philosophy is that we don’t need to be fixed, but seen. I believe that the integration of somatic tools like yoga and meditation with classical talk therapy gives us room to understand this key truth. Sessions with me are a place to land amidst the swirl of life, develop skills for self-regulation and empowerment, form goals and intentions, and receive kind accountability around it all. I show up to session relaxed (comfy pants and flowy clothes!), warm and personable, humorous and acutely aware of the challenging environmental and structural circumstances we all face.

Do you find you are better able to say what’s really going on when carefully listened to and with no rush?

We are all living a story, and like any good narrative, our chronicles are filled with various characters, diverse settings, and twists and turns of the plot. Along the way, we face conflict - with those closest to us, with the workings of the world, and within ourselves. We long for understanding, resolution, and realization of the intention and purpose of our design. The human story can be one of freedom and flourishing, but flourishing is only possible if we are free, and breaking free can be challenging and wearisome on our own.
