Easy to feel comfortable with and is very engaged. Very professional. Only a couple sessions in with her and feel more comfortable with her than past therapists.

Laura is the best therapist out there! She is very attentive, understanding and caring. She's also such a great listener. She has helped me immensely with unresolved childhood trauma. Each day I improve because of her help. I'm grateful to have her as a therapist.

I’ve had four therapy sessions with Laura, and I feel very comfortable talking to her. She’s easy to open up to, listens to my concerns, and is open-minded, which makes it easy to talk about anything. I would definitely recommend her. She’s knowledgeable and helps identify possible issues clearly. Thank you! I’ll definitely continue therapy with her.
