About
Meet Laura
Hello, I am glad you are here. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, EMDR therapist, and Registered Play Therapist with over 20 years of experience working with children and adults.
I come to my work with clients from a place of empathy, compassion, and an appreciation of our shared humanity. I strive to create a non-judgmental space where we embrace being imperfect and where you will feel safe and supported. This road is a bumpy one - I will encourage you to provide yourself with loads of compassion!
As a mother of three, I do my best to practice the strategies I teach with my own children, and while I do see the fruits of that labor, I will also be the first to admit that I am challenged on a daily basis! While parenting is extremely humbling (and oh, so exhausting!), I also see it as a place of opportunity for profound growth.
In my little pockets of spare time, I enjoy reading, exercising, spending time with friends, listening to podcasts, thrifting, and baking.
Anything that's human is mentionable, and anything that's mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary..."
