A licensed clinical social worker and board-certified supervisor with over 25 years of experience working with children, teens, and adults, I spent much of that time working for the world-renowned Kennedy Krieger Institute, a Johns Hopkins affiliate, where I was also in leadership.
Hi there, I'm Laurie! Do you wish providers would look at you through a whole person lens instead of discussing health and mental health separately? Do you want a provider for your child who is playful and skilled at engaging children? Are you an adult who likes a more personal, connected approach to therapy? Do you have a teen who has had difficulty connecting to other providers? Well look no further! I enjoy using storytelling, videos, and conversation to help clients of all ages improve self-esteem, self-worth and gain a better understanding of sense of self.

I have worked to support middle schoolers, high schoolers, college students and adults with ADHD, anxiety, depression, behavioral challenges, autism spectrum disorder, and more.
Do you feel like you have run into a bit of a wall trying to navigate challenges in your life? Are you wondering how to improve your mood or lessen your anxiety when talk therapy hasn't always worked for you? I am here to work with you in exploring, accepting and traversing such obstacles. I specialize in working with pre-teens, adolescents, and young adults, and have done so for over 14 years as a teacher (MST) and mental health practitioner (MSW) in Harlem, NY and Washington, DC. This experience has given me a tremendous amount of insight into the challenges that young people face in today's world and today's academic settings.

I created the Mind Spa in the spirit of providing an accepting and encouraging environment where anyone can achieve a higher degree of mental fitness. Mental fitness is a lifestyle that reflects an ability to approach life's rewards and challenges in a balanced, secure manner, while maintaining a generally positive outlook. Here, adults, children, and families acquire skills to create for themselves a general sense of well-being that can be self-implemented long after treatment has ended.

My greatest passion in life is helping children, adolescents, and young adults navigate their own therapeutic journey. As a neurodiversity affirming therapist, I focus less on problematic behaviors and more on identifying unmet needs and lagging skills. I am strong believer that children are not intentionally giving their parents/teachers/caregivers a hard time, but rather they are having a hard time. As Dr. Ross Green states, "kids do well if they can."
