Hi, My name is Laurel Raissman. My style is highly interactive, focused on communication and achieving clients goals. It is important that my clients are comfortable with me and know that I am available to them. Making life changes is not always easy, but I believe in human resilience and strength. I believe in using humor, encouragement, support, validation, and building confidence and self esteem in every meeting.

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

I believe the first session has two purposes. One to introduce myself and to explain that they are in a safe place. I ask that they tell me what brought them in and the I explain that this session is for them to et comfortable with me. I tell them that I will be learning about them in the information that they choose to share

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

My thirty plus years of experience as a therapist places me in a truly unique place. I have heard it all and find great joy in helping them along their journey

My treatment methods

Supportive

I use more then one modality. I am a marriage and family therapist. I see clients dealing with many different issues. Anxiety, depression, couple issues, grief to name a few

Couples Counseling

In couples counseling the therapist is the neutral party in the session. She actually represents the relationship so each of the couples can feel safe in the session
