Laura is amazing! She always listens and offers Suggestions on how to approach situation differently the next time. She’s kind and understanding and I would recommend her to anyone.

Excellent experience. Very caring, quick to offer help, checks in often. Better than a lot of the therapists I've been assigned through my insurance.

Clear and kind. Approaches my situation with an abundance of empathy. Gives me the space to express myself without judgement. Her approach and easy to talk to demeanour adds a depth to our sessions that I would have never thought possible for someone new to therapy

At first I didn't know if Laura was right for me, I am a very emotional person, and I've been through a lot. She listened to me, and as soon as I found out she was also an only child, I knew she was perfect for me. After the first session we talked, I felt better that I was able to get somethings out instead of bottling them up. I started the treadmill, I completed assignments, I'm starting to work on me, and she said I'm worth it, and that means the world to me to hear that I'm worth it. She listens, and understands, I'm also doing journal entries again, and that's also helping, all I needed was someone to know how overwhelmed I was, and to just allow me to tell my side. I'm so thankful for Betterhelp
