From the outside, you seem tough, resilient, like you can manage or make it through anything. But in private, you feel consumed by anxiety, depression or memories of the past. You can not sleep, you feel little to no motivation for the daily routines of life, and sometimes you get so overwhelmed by life's expectations that you have started to avoid the people, places and activities that used to make you happy! You want change, to smile, and feel like yourself again. But what if you are really, really nervous about starting, about opening up to a stranger? I say, I get it. I've been there!

For over 30 years I have worked with a variety of patients and client groups, including: the military, the school district, hospitals, dialysis, hospice and cancer navigation. It has been a tremendous joy to see the growth in services and the focus on continuity of care - a true vision of mine. I believe we can best care for our patients and clients by empowering them to care for themselves.

Hello, I'm Laurey Gronemeier, and I provide online counseling across Alaska. Isn't it time you felt better? More empowered to become what you hope to be? How many times have you tried?

Just respectful, specialized support from an Alaskan who gets it. Teletherapy is an art that takes expertise to do well. Reach out today.

Growth is recognizing all conflict is not bad conflict. You deserve nonjudgmental support as you navigate conversations around what happens next in your relationship. I work with individuals to unpack examples of relationships they saw as children and discover what they want in life. The world of Ethical Non-Monogamy can bring up fears; fear of abandonment, fear of not being enough, or fear of losing your current value system. As a trained relationship therapist, I skillfully challenge each partner to recognize their negative responses and personal baggage. What happens next is a desire to break the cycle and start anew.

Sometimes life can be difficult, and we need a safe, compassionate, non-judgmental space to work through our struggles.

I offer encouragement, hope, understanding, and added tools to assist you in achieving your goals.

Maybe you’ve tried therapy before and it didn’t help like you’d hoped, or maybe you have never really seen the point. You are not alone in feeling that way. Chances are, if you are glancing through Psychology Today, then there is some curiosity or desire for change at this point. Maybe you are wondering when you might feel like yourself again, or you are feeling so overwhelmed with life that you can’t even think straight.
