My journey in mental health began with a deep commitment to helping trauma and abuse victims find healing and reclaim their lives. Over the years, I have worked extensively with survivors, offering compassionate and evidence-based interventions to help them navigate their trauma and foster resilience. In addition to trauma work, I have also been dedicated to serving individuals with a range of mental health struggles. One of the most rewarding aspects of my career has been witnessing the transformative power of mental health empowerment. I believe strongly in the importance of empowering individuals to take an active role in their healing journey, fostering a sense of agency, self-worth, and hope for the future. My dedication to mental health empowerment extends beyond the therapy room. I am deeply involved in community outreach efforts, advocacy work, and initiatives aimed at destigmatizing mental health issues and promoting access to quality care for all. I am excited to continue this journey of empowerment and impact, and I look forward to the opportunity to collaborate with you on your own path to mental well-being.

This may encompass family stressors, change in life events and general challenges that can result in depression and/or anxiety. I utilize various techniques, including CBT, to identify barriers and develop coping techniques to work towards change and ultimately feel confident and empowered. Sometimes life can become difficult and stressful. It is okay to need help. Making the decision to begin therapy can feel overwhelming. However, it can also be the first step towards creating change in your life. I am committed to providing a compassionate and empathetic environment in which an individual can share their worries and concerns. Our session will be a place where you know you will be heard. It is a place where we will acknowledge difficult situations and celebrate accomplishments, strengths and growth with the possibility of some tears but plenty of laughter as well.

Hello, my name is Laura Savage, and I have had the privilege of working as a Social Worker since 1997. I earned my undergraduate degree from the University of Delaware and later obtained a Master’s in Social Work from Florida International University. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to work with diverse populations across a range of settings, including an adolescent residential treatment facility, a hospital, and a nonprofit organization supporting children affected by cancer and their families. Currently, I am employed within a school district, where I provide school-based counseling services to middle and high school students. My therapeutic approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which I use to help students manage challenges related to ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and anxiety. I also support students in developing executive functioning skills and strategies that promote academic and personal success. In addition to working with adolescents, I enjoy working with young adults and individuals in midlife.

Hello, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have been in the field for over twenty years. I have experience in a variety of settings and with a variety of clients. Many of the people with whom I have worked are struggling with some kind of change, whether it's children growing up, seeking abstinence from a drug or coping with divorce or our own aging process. All these changes can impact our mood and I can help a person cope with the resultant depression or anxiety for instance.

I truly believe that when we start a therapy journey, it is a huge step because you’re entrusting someone with the ability to provide you with care and guidance to address your needs. There is nothing I take more pride in as a therapist than being able to support the people who have trusted me with their care. I believe that through collaborative work, we can help you gain insight and direction to resolve the things you desire. I hold a Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from New York University. I’m part of Resolute, a practice offering high-quality, insurance-covered therapy and psychiatry, with comprehensive support to ensure a smooth and stress-free experience for our clients.
