I’m stubborn, strong-willed, and difficult. The walls I have built over the years have been borderline impenetrable. I have successfully driven away multiple therapists for decades. Until this insanely committed, kind, empathetic, and PATIENT person entered the picture. I feel like I have someone that finally gets what I need and has taken the time to get to know me and what I need. She knows when to push and knows when to be patient and gentle. All because she has taken the time to really understand who I am and what I need. Laurie has changed my life. She’s the real deal and owe my future “happiest” self to her.

I have had therapists in the past that just didn’t match with me. Laurie is soft, kind and asks great, thought provoking questions that have made me look at myself in ways I never have. She’s a great help when navigating an array of issues and I look forward to our session ever week. :)

I've only been working with Laurie for about three weeks and I am very impressed with my therapy sessions and level of support so far. Laurie is very kind yet willing to hold you accountable. I would recommend Laurie for anyone who is dealing with addiction, childhood trauma, and or just the bizarre reality of adulthood.

Therapy is incredibly new to me and I was very anxious about starting and on my first session. Laurie made me feel incredibly more comfortable quickly and allows me to say as much as I want to or as little. I really feel she listens and supports how I’m feeling during a really difficult time. I have continued with Laurie and would highly recommend her as a therapist. I like her honesty too

Laurie is a thoughtful therapist who has learned what therapy style works for me, and adjusted her approach so I can learn easily. I feel safe with her and I know she cares about my feelings and my growth. She’s unafraid to give me hard feedback that I need to hear, but she does it in a way that makes me feel supported and respected. I’ve never looked forward to therapy before, but now I do! I’m becoming the person I’ve always wanted to be, and I’m excited to continue to grow.

Laurie is the most pragmatic therapist I've ever worked with and the first one that I've actually looked forward to engaging with. She gives you space to speak but asks the questions to get at the core issues and then sets about approaching that issue to get real movement through it. It can be painful, but for me the progress has been undeniable. You can expect accountability, a unique perspective, and a partner if you are ready to put in the work to make a change.

I love working with Laurie. I’m also a therapist and it’s taken me some time to find a therapist that I like and that can offer me new perspectives that I can’t see on my own. She is understanding, compassionate, and has a great sense of humor, which is important to me because I use humor to deal a lot of the time.
