Hello! I have over 25 years of experience counseling survivors of domestic violence, child abuse, sexual assault, and sex trafficking, as well as people dealing with PTSD, depression, chronic illness, and anxiety. I'm down to earth, practical, and non-judgmental. I love working with teens, young adults, adults, and folks in the LGBTQ community. I have a lot of experience working with people from all racial and socioeconomic backgrounds. I practice cultural humility and harm reduction and seek to support you to make whatever changes you are ready for. I've had my own personal challenges with abuse, mental health issues, and chronic illness and am a parent to two teenage daughters. I look forward to getting to know you!
I will do my best to make you feel comfortable, while finding out more about your background, current challenges, and goals for therapy. I will tell you a bit about myself and see if you have any questions about the therapeutic process. I will seek to have you leave the session feeling like you have new tools to help yourself with your goals.
I'm very down to earth, practical, straightforward, and open-minded to people from all backgrounds. I can help you find clarity on your goals, and take action steps toward change.
I have a lot of experience working with survivors of all types, and seek to support folks to process trauma and move toward greater safety, stability, and empowerment.

Laurel is the first therapist I have worked with that truly understands the AuADHD struggles to even just exsist in a NT environment and im grateful for her support and insight.

I’m so incredibly happy I found Laurel! I had tried 7 different therapists over the past couple of years and absolutely hated every session. Laurel was the first and only one who truly identified the real problem and made sense of my entire life experience. Now, I actually get excited for therapy! Thank you for everything you do—you are absolutely the best!

I've had several sessions with Laurel now, and I am so happy to have found a therapist that is holistic in their approach, open-minded, really focuses on the issues at hand, and knows how to find solutions that might work. There is a reason why she's booked out a month in advance.
