My approach is affirming yet challenging. I view relational growth as a pathway to emotional, cognitive, and physical wellness. In sessions, I typically combine skills training and process-oriented interventions and focus on shifting the negative beliefs that perpetuate shame and disconnection.

Trauma and anxiety often strip us of essential trust in ourselves; I work closely with clients to create greater self-trust and security in body, mind and spirit. I love helping adolescent females and adult women to befriend their bodies, and to shift narratives embedded in trauma and shame to narratives of resilience and self-compassion.

Groups

Women's Trauma Group (virtual group)

Hosted by

Laura Winters Unsworth

1A Wellness offers a virtual, 12-week group where members identify and pursue a personal goal related to their healing from trauma while receiving support and feedback from others. Given the potential for trauma-oriented work to bring up painful feelings, this group is for women with relatively stable life circumstances, some good supports and coping skills for managing symptoms, and not actively self-harming or abusing substances. More details can be found at www.1awellness.com/groups-and-workshops/

Grief Processing Group for Young Adults

Hosted by

Laura Winters Unsworth

We are not meant to grieve alone. This is a closed time-limited group for people in their 20s and 30s who have experienced a loss in the recent or distant past, guided by a therapist who encourages self-reflection, expression, and discussion. The focus is on listening to and honoring one another’s stories rather than advice-giving, and on engaging with reflective and contemplative healing practices and materials to support the grieving process. Spots are limited so reach out today.
