This is the best therapeutic relationship I've ever had. With Laura, I like her approach, respect her expertise, and trust that she is there to help me (personally, specifically), in a way I've never experienced with another therapist. If you are looking to dig into the uncomfortable/painful/shameful stuff and need an astute guide, I highly recommend Laura.

Laura was an awesome therapist! She set goals, did not sugar coat things, and called me out when necessary. She helped me to look at things from many perspectives, and offered ways to go about dealing with my concerns.

Today was my first session, I was nerves and afraid I wouldn’t know what to say. However, Laura took the reins and opened the conversations and interjected as needed to get better understanding of what needs I need met. Can’t wait to talk to her again during my next session.

Laura is literally a lifesaver. I have never connected with a therapist until I met Laura. She is patient, understanding, and provides a welcoming safe space to be open and honest with zero judgment. She has helped me overcome many roadblocks and always checks in between appointments with helpful podcasts, etc. A session with Laura feels like a chat with your best friend, and she always finds a way to resonate with whatever is causing stress in your life. I highly recommend Laura Walls…you will feel like someone is on your side at all times and you’re never alone.
