Laura is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. She obtained her Bachelor of Science (BS) in Organizational Behavior from the College of St. Scholastica. She obtained her Master of Science (MS) in Mental Health Counseling/Psychology from Capella University. Laura strongly believes that each of us is as unique as our fingerprint: that, at the core, we are made up, not only of our physical DNA, but also every experience and personal interaction throughout our lifetime. Therefore, her approach to therapy is one that is person-centered and individualized to meet each client’s unique needs with compassion, understanding, empathy and nonjudgment. Laura is honest in acknowledging that life can often present challenges, painful struggles, and even traumatic events beyond our control; but she has personally experienced and witnessed the fact that by being provided with a safe therapeutic environment, each of us possesses the capacity to learn, grow, change and heal: physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. By exploring the root cause of our emotional experience and accepting the pain of the past, emotional healing can occur. She has a special interest in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, as well as being experienced in supporting people struggling with depression, anxiety, self-doubt, and women’s self-esteem.
