Counseling services focus on helping families and individuals build skills that increase health behaviors and foster resiliency. Symptoms and challenges are addressed using a CBT, DBT, Adlerian, and/or a client centered ‘strengths and solutions’ based approach. Emphasis in sessions include gaining awareness of negative self-talk and habits, learning tools to change behaviors, and rewriting new scripts that illuminate strengths, acceptance, and self-discipline. Sand Tray techniques and Play Therapy are additional approaches to help clients process emotions and progress in their goals.

That voice telling you it’s time for a change is not always loud, but it is persistent! My name is Laura Walsh and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 30 years of experience helping people create a better life through personal and transformative change. Traditionally, I have maintained a focus on anxiety and mood disorders, relational and familial instability, self-esteem, and substance abuse issues. Through the years, I've found that many seeking help with these problems are actually dealing with the emotional fall out of unresolved trauma - leading to my focus and specialization in the successful resolution of PTSD.

Our Greatest Fear —Marianne Williamson “It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us. Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us.” It is when we are faced with our greatest fears when we are in need of someone who we can trust to hear those fears and assist us with equipping ourselves with life skills/tools to overcome and conquer them. I have over 25 years of clinical experience assisting others on how to achieve their best life. It is my belief solutions to our problems are within us.

Hi! I am not accepting new clients at this time but please check back in the future. My goal in therapy is to help you identify root causes of issues, process your past, and move forward in new patterns. Family dynamics and life experiences often keep us stuck, so I want to help you work through those difficulties and become more authentically yourself. I am open and affirming of who you are and trust that you are the expert on your life. My job is to provide tools and an approach that will best support you. We all need someone to sit in the midst of the mess with us, allow us to feel our emotions, and witness our growth.

Are you weighed down by your past or present experiences or trauma? Are you looking for a new way of relating to others in your life or learning to live your best life with acceptance & understanding? Many adverse experiences in our lives leave us with behaviors and beliefs that effect our ability to function and relate to the people we care about. Whether it’s a difficult break-up, childhood experiences, problematic relationships, or trauma, the healing that therapy brings can be transformative. Taking that step is important in healing & making change a reality.

Therapy allows you to work through your thoughts, emotions, interactions and relationships in a safe supportive atmosphere. A good therapist will support and guide you to gain increased perspective and insight while also empowering you to self-assess and identify solutions/needed changes, not impress their beliefs on you. YOU are the active change agent in your journey to increased happiness and fulfillment; a good therapist just guides the way. I am happy to help whether you are seeking to find your own happiness, to improve or change relationships with others in your life, or to learn to better manage stress and emotions.

We all know there are things in life we can’t control, but where we do have some control is in our responses to those things - even if it feels like we don't. Many times we just don't know how. My clients have trauma-related issues that have caused them ongoing problems. Traumas may be from childhood or from events experienced as an adult. Unresolved trauma masks itself in a variety of troubling ways. You may feel anxious, depressed, emotionally detached, or easily overwhelmed. You may even question whether or not what you've experienced is "trauma".

Our lives are complicated and busy with very little time to figure out what to do next. That is why when we have issues it can be difficult to see our way out. This is where therapy is helpful; to speak to someone who is caring, accepting and can objectively see both the larger and smaller pictures. Being non-judgmental is the key to allowing people to be heard and allow some healing to begin. Sometimes it just takes validation or a new perspective to make all the difference in your life.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In Canada, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist, psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
