Hi, I’m Laura, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 20 years of experience helping people grow, heal, and connect with their best selves. I’ve spent much of my career working in community and school settings, supporting children, teens, and young adults through life’s challenges with empathy, creativity, and humor.

As a mom, I know firsthand how difficult it can be to navigate today’s world—especially when it comes to raising confident and empathetic kids who feel comfortable forging their own sense of identity while also working within the education system to advocate for their needs. That personal experience deeply informs my work and helps me connect with parents and families in a meaningful way.

I specialize in working with young people who have experienced trauma or struggle with anxiety, depression, focus, or peer relationships. For the past eight years, I’ve provided mental health support to students with IEPs, helping them build self-regulation skills, improve school experiences, and strengthen friendships.

Outside of work, you’ll often find me in my garden or spending time with my chickens. I believe in the healing power of nature and am currently training to become a Horticultural Therapist, weaving that love of growth—both literal and personal—into my work.

If you’re looking for a therapist who brings warmth, creativity, and a down-to-earth approach to healing, I’d be honored to support your journey.
