Currently accepting new clients! When we're struggling in life, feeling stuck, hurt, confused, or alone, we all deserve a place to talk with someone we know will not judge or shame us, but instead who will accompany us and help us create change, finding our hope and strength. You were designed to heal and have everything you need inside - sometimes you just need the right guide. Laura has advanced skills, offers much more than just talk therapy, and knows how to help you. She is here to undo your aloneness, uncover your transformance, and help you return home to yourself to live your most authentic and connected life.
Laura specializes in complex trauma recovery, post traumatic growth and nervous system regulation. All the therapy she does is evidence-based and is designed to be empowering, with a focus on de-pathologizing the person. All interventions are integrated from a trauma-informed and polyvagal informed perspective. She is radically relational and experiential.
Laura’s own journey of healing helps to inform the way she works with clients and motivates her to continue finding meaningful and effective ways to help others heal and grow. Laura would consider it an immense and sacred honor to walk alongside you in your healing journey whenever you are ready to take that step.

I'm a trauma therapist which is totally different from traditional talk therapy or CBT. I work with the nervous system, the body, and the embodied, relational mind. Therapy with me is experiential, somatic, attachment based, emotion focused, and informed by current evidence and research based neuroscience. Healing is possible, and I know the path!

I'm radically relational and experiential because we can't talk or think our way out of anxiety/depression. I have advanced skills in AEDP (Level II) and am working towards certification. I'm level 1 IFS, and I integrate EMDR, Somatic therapy, and applied Polyvagal therapy. I am an expert in attachment and the nervous system.
