Trust is not something I expect you to walk in with — it is something I hope to earn. I show up to every session as a real person who is genuinely invested in you — not just your symptoms or your diagnosis but your whole story and where you want it to go. I am warm but honest, supportive but direct, and deeply committed to creating a space where you can finally say the things you have never said out loud.

My ideal client is someone who feels overwhelmed by expectations, responsibilities, relationships, or stress and has difficulty finding space to care for themselves. They may be navigating anxiety, burnout, life transitions, or professional stress, especially in school or helping professions. They want greater clarity, steadiness, and confidence in themselves and their direction. Together, we explore how relationships, environments, and expectations contribute to stress while building healthier boundaries, practical coping strategies, and a stronger sense of self.

Thinking and feeling in ways that allow you to engage your daily life, others, and your personal goals with energy, creativity, and effectiveness is the thrust of my approach and practice. Identifying patterns that restrict cognitive and behavioral functioning, preventing understanding and integration of personal and interpersonal dynamics is a key focus. Increasing self awareness and understanding through enhancing mindfulness, expanding thinking about self and others, and developing behavior patterns that mobilize personal strengths, assets, and motivation is the goal of the work.

I do this work because I genuinely care about getting it right. Not just following a model or checking the boxes-actually understanding you, your situation, and what you need. I take my time with people. That's not something I was taught. It's just who I am. Hi, I'm Laura- a licensed clinical counselor with 20+ years of experience working with teens, adults, couples, and families, including complex, court-involved situations. I bring straight talk, some humor, and real investment to work that is often anything but easy. I'm not here for the version of you that has it together. I'm here for the real you.

Anger Management Therapists
How long does therapy take for anger management?
Treatment duration depends on the person’s specific challenges and circumstances. There are treatments for anger problems that are shorter and more goal-oriented, like Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), which can last weeks to months. Others, like Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) may last between six months and a year, while a more intensive treatment, like psychodynamic therapy, is open-ended, and clients may see their therapist for a year or longer.

How do you know if you need therapy for anger management?
Everyone gets mad from time to time. But when angry outbursts become frequent and cause damage to relationships, whether at home or in the office, it may be a good time to look into therapy. A therapist can assess where a client’s anger may be coming from, suggest strategies for averting angry outbursts, and help a client create a plan to become a calmer version of themselves.

Is there medication for anger management?
Medications do exist that help people mitigate the feeling of anger, but these are reserved for people with anger-related psychiatric disorders, such as intermittent explosive disorder, oppositional defiant disorder, or in some cases borderline personality disorder. In these cases, antidepressant medications may be prescribed to help with the client’s symptoms. In most cases of anger management, however, talk therapy is the recommended treatment, along with lifestyle changes where relevant.

What’s the best way to encourage someone to seek help for anger issues?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual’s behavior affected either themselves or others should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
