Hi there, I'm Laura!

I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, self-image struggles, suicidal ideation, self-harm, and family conflict. My warm, collaborative approach helps clients feel heard and empowered as they build tools to manage life's challenges.

My focus

I work well with teens and young adults experiencing trauma, family dysfunction, life transitions, feelings of not belonging, and immigration concerns. These challenges often connect to stress, anxiety, and depression. I provide a safe space to feel heard, learn coping tools, and feel empowered.

My approach

My approach varies based on your needs and often involves Person-Centered Therapy, CBT, Motivational Interviewing, DBT, and Solution-Focused Therapy. I focus on getting to know you deeply, understanding what you want to achieve, and tailoring our work together to support your goals.
