Laura Mason, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Laura!

Psychotherapy can offer you a safe space to talk openly about your concerns, reflect on possible solutions, and build coping skills. Insight into struggles you may be facing and stronger relationships are the main goals for therapy that will assist you in feeling more fulfilled and facilitate well-being.

My focus

We will explore issues related to depression, anxiety, trauma and relationship challenges. You can let me know what is most helpful. I will remain calm and offer you an environment of acceptance and patience.

My approach

I use a variety of therapy techniques that will provide coping skills and strategies to improve quality of life. I offer a supportive environment to help you achieve your goals.

My communication style

I provide active listening and assist you in reflecting on the areas that are not working for you. I will focus on helping you find solutions and share thoughts about different ways to approach what you are facing.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a provider has been a strong desire to help other people. I’m driven by the belief that everyone has the capacity for growth, healing, and lasting change.

My goals for you

As you gain insight into your set goals, we will make adjustments to continue the path of improvement and growth. Goals should always be evaluated for effectiveness, and new goals will be identified as needed.

Our first session

Our first session will be a chance to get to know each other and a review of life experiences that have shaped your worldview. We will pace the conversation so that you are comfortable with our approach.
