Life transitions often lead us to feel overwhelmed. While people close to us may be supportive, we may not always feel able to share with them our doubts and discomfort. Whether we’re holding our own or a loved one's sexuality or gender identity; navigating changes in our primary relationships, or reflecting on adverse experiences, having a safe space to reflect and process is invaluable. My practice serves adult clients who have struggled with anxiety, live with trauma or grief, or who experience the world as members or allies of the LGBTQ+ community. My approach is conversational, strengths-based, and results-oriented.

Welcome! My name is Laura. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor/ Psychotherapist accepting new clients for individual and couples therapy. Over the past 10+ years of experience working in the mental health field, I have helped my clients explore the potential for optimum functioning that resides within them and have helped them gain clarity in difficult times. I have experience working with individuals struggling with anxiety disorders, OCD, negative self-talk, low self-esteem, mood instability, substance use, history of trauma, psychosis, personality disorders and identity development.

I am trained in using CBT, EMDR, and other evidence-based approaches to help people make lasting changes to their self-image that lead to real changes in their lives. My approach is hands on, goal-oriented, strengths based, and gender/identity affirming. I help clients challenge unrealistic patterns of thinking, deconstruct who they are from who they have learned to be, learn how to feel safe and regulated in their body, identify options for difficult life situations that align with their values, and learn the skills to meet their needs e.g. assertiveness, boundary setting, communication, mindfulness, relaxation and grounding.

My approach is a supportive, interactive one that aims to help people better understand their thoughts, feelings, and relationships. Ultimately my goal is to establish a collaborative dialogue that offers a safe place to examine current challenges alongside past formative experiences.

Being human is a wondrous and challenging endeavor. Most of us walk around each day feeling inadequate, lost, anxious or depressed. And yet something inside us yearns for more. It takes tremendous courage to slow down and listen to this voice. To turn towards the painful feelings and try to understand them. I believe that with the right support, the hard stuff is actually the gateway to a life that is more purposeful, meaningful, integrated and peace-filled. In my office I create a warm and engaging space for clients to build self-awareness, heal old wounds and reflect on patterns that may not be helping them.

Life can be messy and difficult at times and often we feel alone in our journey, not knowing how to move forward to find the meaning that we desperately seek. I can help you do the deeper work needed to move towards a more authentic and fulfilling experience while also assisting you in accepting and even embracing wherever you are in your journey right now. I don’t believe in a one size fits all approach to psychotherapy and I utilize different approaches depending on your needs. My goal is to create a safe, warm, nonjudgmental space where you can feel seen, heard and understood.

Beginning a therapy journey can feel overwhelming, but ultimately the goal is to help you feel better and acquire more adaptive coping skills to lead a more fulfilling life. This process is unique to each individual. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, or are a parent looking for extra support for your child, your needs and issues will be discussed with empathy and care. Together, we will build attainable goals to help you express yourself in empowering, healing and transformative ways.

“The good life is a process, not a state of being.” -Carl Rogers (1961). My aim in therapy is to empower you and to help you discover what “the good life” means to you. We all need support on our journey through life’s ups and downs. Together we can figure out how to manage the good and bad moments through genuine, empathic, and healing therapy work.

Would you like to make positive changes in your life? Create long lasting growth in your relationships, and develop a sense of self understanding and awareness? These are all valid and common desires that can be achieved with the proper guidance and support. I have been working with clients for many years successfully achieving and maintaining their goals. My theoretical framework for creating a growth promoting climate in which individuals can move forward and become their true self, includes the tenets of empathy, genuineness, and a non judgmental unconditional positive regard.

I am a clinical psychologist who works with adolescents and adults. My goal is to help you or your child understand and break free of self-defeating patterns, and to feel more connected and whole. I view the relationship between therapist and patient as a powerful vehicle for change. It is in the context of this unique relationship that people have the opportunity to learn about their strengths as well as parts of themselves that may hold them back. While this process of self-discovery is sometimes painful, it provides the opportunity for deep and lasting change.
