Hi I’m Laurie. Are you looking for a therapist who will help you understand how to meet life’s challenges? Has your stress level escalated to a point where you feel like you can’t carry the weight by yourself? Are you afraid to talk with family or friends for fear of being judged or criticized? I have helped many folks learn how to navigate some of life’s most difficult challenges including divorce, death of loved ones, substance use, gender issues and neurodiversity, with respect and dignity. Whether you suffer with anxiety, depression, trauma symptoms or you are questioning whether your substance use is helping or hurting, I have the experience and tools to help you. With a holistic approach and evidenced based treatments we will explore the causes of your symptoms while learning how to navigate a new path forward. I’m open to talking with you about how we can work together. And if it is not a good fit, I will help you find a therapist who will be.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together we will get to know each other with introductions and go over the information from the Intake forms and begin to formulate goals and a treatment plan.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My biggest strengths are deep empathy and compassion. Having been a therapist for many years, while also continuing my own growth and healing in therapy, I have been on both sides of the fence, so to speak. I dare not judge anyone because I have also been judged. There is almost nothing I have not heard seen or experienced as a therapist and in my own life's journey.
