About me

Deciding to reach out for support can feel daunting, but my primary goal is to guide you through every step of the process. Whether you are returning to therapy or seeking it for the first time, I approach each individual with an open mind, empathy, and respect. I believe that effective therapy offers honest, objective insights that can foster self-awareness and inspire meaningful change. I aim to empower you to recognize your full potential, highlighting both your strengths and areas for growth. Rather than seeking to "fix" you, I am here to provide a safe and supportive space for you as you embark on your journey towards wellness.
I specialize in the treatment of depression, anxiety, and ADHD, with extensive experience and training in working with individuals affected by acute stress and chronic post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). I regularly incorporate a variety of evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), DBT, Psychodynamic therapy, and ACT.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Laura Noel. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

I am 30 years old and brand new to therapy. Laura has been so kind, knowledgeable and easy to talk to. I felt so overwhelmed before my first appointment and now after just 3 sessions with Laura I look forward to our talks, and I am excited to embark on this journey to become the best version of myself.

Laura is kind and provides a welcoming environment to do hard work in. She provided a lot of good insight and many helpful tools. I’m glad we were paired by the app and can’t imagine a better therapist for my needs.

Laura is such an amazing, intuitive therapist. She knows how to read her patients and provide exactly what they are needing in that moment. She exudes calmness and understanding. I can’t recommend her enough.

I haven’t been in therapy in 20 years because I wasn’t sure if I would have to “shop” for a therapist and that felt like too much work. I have better help a shot one night and was paired with Laura. Laura is so easy to talk to. She listens and never interrupts. I’m extremely happy with her so far.
