About Laura
Laura draws on 14 years of clinical work in counseling, hospice, and hospital settings. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people find and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also uses Motivational Interviewing to support people who want to make changes but feel stuck.
Her background includes a Master’s in Social Work from Boise State University and licenses as LCSW and LICSW. That clinical foundation is paired with experience supporting people with bereavement, end-of-life concerns, compassion fatigue, and workplace issues. She often combines approaches to match each person’s needs.
In sessions she focuses on practical coping skills, improving relationships, and building routines that reduce symptoms of depression and seasonal affective disorder. She also addresses attachment issues, codependency, forgiveness, and life purpose when those topics come up. Laura describes herself as a spouse, Christian, ally, outdoors person, and animal lover.
If someone wants a therapist who listens, encourages, and offers concrete tools, Laura aims to provide that support. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking and use the Start Therapy button to begin the matching process.
