As a Licensed Professional Counselor in New Jersey since 2015, I specialize in helping individuals navigate self-discovery, build motivation, enhance self-esteem, overcome career challenges, recover from toxic relationships, and adapt to life’s transitions.
I understand that the holiday season can be particularly stressful. Whether you're coping with family dynamics, loneliness, or the pressure to meet expectations, this time of year often brings unique challenges. My goal is to provide a safe, welcoming space where you can feel supported as you manage these difficulties and work toward creating a sense of balance and peace.
My approach is client-centered and creative, always tailored to your unique needs. I strive to treat everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, ensuring you feel heard and valued.
I work with individuals from all walks of life and particularly enjoy supporting creative people such as musicians and artists. I value the richness of diverse backgrounds and take pride in helping clients find empowerment and clarity during challenging times.
Taking the first step toward change is an act of courage, and I am here to guide you every step of the way. I offer therapy via video or phone sessions, making it easy to prioritize your mental health even during the busiest of seasons.

Laura is very kind and encouraging. She makes me feel heard and makes me confident in my path. She is especially helpful when challenging my thoughts and ideas and relating them to trauma. I like when she comments on my patterns and my thinking. I appreciate that she identifies particular concepts for me such as abuse, as they can be very difficult to decipher. 5 stars!!
