About me

I believe in an integrative approach to your overall health and happiness and provide a confidential space to help you find success in a variety of life issues and personal challenges. I value humor, compassion, empowerment, relationships and cultural sensitivity in my work.

I believe that therapy works best when it is tailored to the personality and the individual needs of each client. Rather than relying on just one of the many modern approaches to psychotherapy, I pull from several disciplines, including solution-focused and cognitive behavioral based therapy, which I believe yields faster and longer-lasting results. I am a compassionate and empathetic psychotherapist, dedicated to helping my clients reach their optimal level of well-being.

I have experience and training as a therapist and consultant. I have worked with clients on concerns such as: anxiety, depression, ADHD, stress and anger management, relationship conflict, grief and loss, family stress, career challenges, postpartum depression/anxiety, and infertility. I have experience working with individuals of all ages in various settings, such as community mental health centers, schools, inpatient psychiatric hospitals, and private practice.

I received my degrees in Clinical Psychology from the Illinois School of Professional Psychology at Chicago. Prior to that, I attended the University of Cincinnati, where I obtained my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology.

My goal is to help you feel empowered to handle previously overwhelming problems or difficulties by providing you the space to grow in a nurturing environment! I would love to help you start building a more positive future.

Laura was extremely helpful in talking me through my issues. She is very patient and thoughtful in her responses and showed a lot of care about my well being. I am so appreciative of all that she has done!

Working with Laura has been nothing short of an absolute pleasure, and I consider myself incredibly lucky to have her as my online therapist. It feels a little funny writing a review for a therapist and going into detail about their qualities, so I guess I'll focus on how she's been able to help me so far. In just a few weeks, she's already helped me begin working on several issues and heighten my self-awareness. I feel empowered and deeply grateful that she'll always graciously read my often long, rambling, and incoherent messages and provide her understanding and compassion and challenging me to examine myself. I look forward to an ongoing therapy relationship with her. Although I comment based on a perceived high level of compatibility in our relationship, Laura does strike me as a consummate and versatile professional who is both willing and able to help anyone.

Laura has given me some brilliant advice and is making me see that although I feel bad about the situation I'm in with my little boy, it's not my fault.

Laura is super helpful and I enjoy talking to her. One comment, but I'm not sure if it is the way with all counsellors is she is very formal in her messages and it intimidates me a little.. But other than that I feel very happy to talk to her and so far she is a very good person to talk to!

Laura is very pleasing to talk to as well as communicate with, I feel she approaches the issues with a clear and level mind witch helps me do the same. She addresses the subjects with as much involvement as needed and looks for me to be involved in the thinking process as to let me understand where the issues have come from as well as finding a solution to them.

It's been great having Laura work with me and talk through a lot of issues I was facing. She was also very quick to respond and follow up when I needed help before a deadline I was facing.
Thank you so much Laura!!
