Hi! I'm Laurel! You have reached the right person if you're feeling sad, stuck, or hopeless. I help individuals & couples navigate challenges during critical life transitions. I focus on supporting adolescents, young professionals & couples, as they work through issues such as anxiety, depression, & interpersonal struggles. I also have deep understanding of the unique emotional and psychological experiences that accompany post-partum depression and anxiety. With my continued work with hospitals as well as my continued education in Perinatal Mood Disorders, I am uniquely qualified to work with mothers on issues related to parenthood.
The most important aspect of therapy is the relationship between the client and therapist. I work to co-create a safe and caring environment in which people can work toward self-actualization, understanding, and balance within their lives and relationships. My clients find my style humorous and affirming while also challenging and stimulating.
I believe in our innate desire & ability to heal. Sometimes we need assistance in finding the path to wholeness and health. Other times we need someone to hold us accountable to change. I encourage clients to work through the current issues resounding in their life and develop insight into their own patterns of behavior and relationships to become empowered.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.
