The idea that one learns by experiencing and is truly capable of making the necessary shifts in their lives is a mantra I live by. When one person mirrors another with gentle listening, others are able to clearly see what no longer works in their lives. Ingrained habits coming from difficult childhoods could be the very source of havoc, that with conscious awareness, can shift. Perhaps the way one communicates is keeping love from flowing in your life. Maybe parenting a child who reminds you of yourself means confronting yourself on a deeply personal level. Or perhaps it is simply a life transition that is simply too much.
I allow individuals to see themselves with compassion and art. I incorporate mindfulness, laughter, life experience and a sense of artistic intelligence, so that clients can bring a centered aliveness to their lives. In the face of stress, they rise to become powerful and resilient. More at http://www.centeredsacramento.com/laurie-richardson-family-therapist
I see children, individuals, groups and families. My education background grants me insight into working with children, especially adolescent girls. I relish working with anyone committed to their own growth. I work with communication and relationship issues, patterns, depression, trauma, PTSD and family issues. Together we will explore what's right for you.

Groups
Together2
This teen art-infused group is intended to be small, where I've allowed clients to select the issues they want to deal with (social media pressure, bullying from classmates, friends, adults, handling divorce and spread between 2 households, sexuality). This group will start in mid-October 2021 on Fridays from 530-7pm at the therapist's office and will continue every two weeks until mid-December 2021.
