Laura is very patient and very knowledgeable about trauma therapy. She actually takes her time to get to know you as a person so that you both can walk through your path of true healing and understanding. If you have ever been through a trauma I would recommend Laura as the therapist for you.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Mrs. Laura is great. Attentive, trustworthy, and very common sense approaches. Be warned tho, she takes all the notes and follows up on them. Sets realistic goals and pushes you to obtain them!

Laura helped me work through issues from my past that were keeping me from connecting with people and were keeping my isolated and closed off. As we worked through those issues, she helped me see that there was other things that were contributing to everything and helped me move past it.

Very helpful

Reviewed November 2023

So I had a therapist right before Laura and she was nice, but I feel Laura is a better fit for me. I like that she actually listens and lets me babble until I kind of come to an epiphany on my own about why I do some of the things I do.. then she helps me take action to move forward. In our first session she asked me a lot of questions about myself and got a feel for my personality. I think that is so she is able to tailor her approach for each individual person. Highly recommend!!
