Hello and welcome! I’m Laura, a trauma-informed and spiritually-open clinical therapist dedicated to guiding you through your healing journey with a unique, hybrid approach. I believe in addressing the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. My practice is rooted in understanding how trauma affects both the brain and the body, providing a compassionate space for you to process and release years of unresolved pain. By integrating this trauma-informed perspective, we can work together to break free from the cycle of reliving past events. In addition to this foundational work, I embrace the belief that we are spiritual beings navigating a human experience. This perspective allows us to cultivate deeper compassion for ourselves and our circumstances. We are made of energy, and acknowledging this can open up new pathways for healing and self-discovery. One of the tools we’ll use is Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy. This approach helps us explore and understand the different parts of ourselves that play crucial roles in our lives. By recognizing that every part of us has a distinct value—whether it's to love, protect, or guide—we can start to integrate and harmonize these aspects to support your overall well-being. Together, we’ll embark on a journey that honors your unique experiences and empowers you to reclaim your inner strength. I’m here to support you every step of the way. If you’re ready to explore this holistic approach to healing, I invite you to reach out and begin this transformative process. ************* SCHEDULING for NEW and Existing Clients: If you’re interested in setting up a new client consultation, please do NOT schedule online.
