Laura Dru Miles

My communication style

I want you to feel safe and to give feedback at the end of each session. I use interventions to help you connect with yourself. I will give you an action plan between sessions so that you have a sense of connection from one session to the next. I want clients who are receptive to my interventions and make mental health a priority.

My journey to mental healthcare

Perhaps you, like me, have mixed emotions and thoughts about being in therapy. You may decide to follow the idea of finding that special person you trust to whom you can tell what weighs heavily on your heart and mind. Therapy is not about me giving you a cure, but encouraging your independence through self-care and our relationship.

My goals for you

Setting goals is a collaborative effort, meaning you and I will set some goals based on what you believe would help you improve your life. I help my clients learn about their automatic thoughts and the layers of beliefs that lead them to their core beliefs. For this series of events to occur, we will often revise the treatment plan.

Our first session

Many clients are unhappy with who they are, and do not realize that they became the adults they are during their formative years, interacting with their families, schools, work environments, marriages, and sometimes divorces. My client can expect to learn about their automatic thoughts and the layers of beliefs that lead them to their core beliefs.
