About Laura
Her background includes work with youth and adolescents in community mental health and in private practice. That history shaped a focus on how people relate to the systems around them - schools, caregivers, and families. She also pays attention to issues like attachment, abandonment, adoption and foster care, and blended family challenges.
Laura uses a cognitive-behavioral lens to help clients notice patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. She also practices client-centered methods and draws on attachment-based and narrative ways of working to understand life stories and relationships. Mindfulness practices are woven in when helpful for managing strong emotions.
Sessions tend to focus on practical steps alongside careful listening. Clients can expect work on communication, coping skills, and small behavior changes that add up over time. Laura aims to support each person’s goals without taking over the process.
With 22 years of experience in Washington, she continues to blend structured approaches with collaborative, person-focused care. People who want to talk through parenting concerns, career strain, ADHD-related struggles, or coping with life change often find this combination useful.
