I work primarily with LGBTQ+ adults and young adults dealing with anxiety, identity questions, relationship struggles, and major life transitions. Many are exploring gender identity or trying to better understand themselves outside of expectations they have carried for years. They may spend a lot of time in their own heads, struggling to take the first step. I have often found my clients are thoughtful, but self-conscious, they're high achievers, but live with executive dysfunction, and they desire change, but still feel stuck in the same emotional patterns that leave them disconnected, uncertain, or frustrated with themselves.

Hi, I’m Laurie. I am a mental health care provider offering supportive, attuned care for the perinatal period - before, during, and after your new family member arrives.
The journey to parenthood isn’t always what we expect. Maybe you don't feel like yourself, or feel overwhelmed, sad, or angry. You want to enjoy this time in your life but find yourself just surviving. Every family deserves support and community. I am glad that you are here seeking that.

I believe each of us, deep down, hold our own answers to the issues we face. Sometimes we need an objective listener to ask new questions, suggest new skills, be supportive and coach us through tough times. Humans have a tremendous ability to handle the traumatic events in life. We build strategies to get us through the day. At some point, we might realize that these strategies no longer work and may even be causing more problems than they solve. This is when the support of a caring professional can help us find more efficient strategies to handle our lives.

Finding yourself amidst the chaos of work, parenting, relationships, and life in general can be tricky. You might know that you need some help, but it feels impossible (or even wrong) to prioritize yourself. Perhaps you're afraid to slow down and deal with those things that you routinely push aside - tough relationships, hard decisions, or your past. Whatever might be bringing you here, you are deserving of a space to connect with yourself and generate movement toward growth, healing, and positive change.

I passionately help BIPOC adults who have felt alone or misunderstood for far too long. They may be navigating autism, ADD/ADHD, loneliness, stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, health issues, autoimmune disorders, hormonal changes, chronic pain, fatigue or burnout that feel layered and complex. They want help understanding why they feel this way and how diet, lifestyle, family history, oppression, and their environments have impacted them. My clients want lasting transformation—not temporary relief. They are seeking holistic, compassionate, culturally rooted and spiritually safe space where they feel seen, honored, and supported.

How do you encourage a woman to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Offering specific examples of how an individual may be suffering, and what effects it has on them, 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.
How can women prepare for therapy?
Women can prepare for therapy by being willing to talk about their past experiences and their private thoughts. Before a session, an individual may want to reflect on how they’ve felt since the last session and what’s happened in their lives. Between sessions, it can be useful to write down notes about their reaction to a given event or how they felt at a particular time.
How long does therapy for women’s issues often last?
As with any type of therapy, sessions depend on the individual and the challenges they face. Therapy types like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Prolonged exposure therapy (PET), and Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) can be brief, most often ranging from between 5 and 20 sessions. In some cases, such as for women with eating disorders, residential treatment may be recommended for an individual who is judged to be at high risk of self-harm. For any therapy, the duration will depend on the progress made and results realized.
How can women overcome stigma around specific challenges in order to seek therapy?
Women dealing with domestic abuse, sexual assault, eating disorders, and any other number of troubles may feel a stigma around seeking help. It’s important to remember that these issues are not uncommon and there is no shame in getting help for them. Therapy is confidential, and women can talk about their experiences without fear of judgment. Seeking therapy can be a courageous and liberating act, and an important step toward healing and recovery.
