More about Laura

  • 6 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMHC

I am a registered therapist and licensed mental health counselor in the state of Washington with 6 years experience, as this is my second career and life purpose. My experience comes from providing direct mental health therapy and behavioral counseling for youth and caregivers, teens and adults with a variety of presenting issues, including anxiety, depression, trauma, gender identity, learning disabilities and relationship challenges.

My experience is varied across different settings, as I have provided individual and group therapy in community mental health agencies and day treatment facilities, including experience in intensive outpatient and partial hospitalization programs. I believe that we are all products of our closest relationships, our environment, our family systems, and every moment that leads to the present us. I strive to treat the therapeutic relationship, and you, with compassion, respect and warmth.

My therapy style and approach is Integrative/Holistic, and draws from the following approaches: Person-Centered, Gestalt, Humanistic, Cognitive-Behavioral and Dialectical Behavioral therapies. This allows me to tailor my therapeutic approach to an individual’s needs and goals. A top priority for me is to meet you where you are without judgement and focus treatment on what will work best for you and your goals. Whether you are working towards enlightenment and insight or symptom-relief and improved function, my hope is that we can collaboratively work together to achieved it.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
