Hello, I'm Laura. As a counselor, I am deeply committed to helping you create a healthier, more fulfilling life. My clients often tell me that my calm and serene nature helps them relax and feel safe in our therapy sessions. I believe that a supportive and non-judgmental environment is crucial for effective therapy, and I strive to provide that space for you. In our work together, I utilize a combination of cognitive and motivational strategies tailored to help you meet your goals and solve your problems. Whether you're dealing with depression, anxiety, addiction, or any other concern, my approach is designed to empower you and foster positive change. I have a particular passion for working with older adults, but I enjoy helping clients from all walks of life. I hold a Master of Arts degree and am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor as well as a Certified Addiction Specialist. My specializations include treating a wide range of issues such as dementia, grief and bereavement, medical issues and physical health, stress, family relationships, life transitions, phobias, intimate and romantic relationships, sleep disorders, anger management, ADHD, bipolar disorder, LGBTQIA+ support, OCD, PTSD, trauma, perinatal support, and traumatic brain injury. When you choose to work with me, you can expect a collaborative and personalized approach. I am here to listen, support, and guide you through your journey, helping you navigate life's challenges and achieve your personal goals. Therapy is a partnership, and I am dedicated to being with you every step of the way. If you're ready to start your therapy journey, please schedule an appointment or reach out to me on the client portal. I look forward to meeting you soon and working together towards a healthier, happier you.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Having worked with many clients over the years, I've developed a tried-and-true playbook for helping you (a) identify the root cause of your challenges and (b) create a tailored plan that leads to measurable progress.
I love working with both young and older adult clients that need help with coping with whatever life is throwing at them. My clients are eager to improve, but don't yet have the tools needed to make this goal a reality. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed and anxious about their lives.

Although I’m new to Laura, she was going to listen to all my situations and because she’s also local she knows the area that I’m originally from and understands my background. I’m excited to grow within my therapy and to find who I am and I think she will help me Along the way
