Life can feel overwhelming when you're trapped in negative emotions. Your nervous system is on overdrive. You're exhausted, but unhelpful thoughts keep you from feeling rested. You're irritable. You feel like something is wrong with you. Even minor inconveniences feel like they have the power to derail your whole day. Your relationships suffer - at work, at school, at home, and with yourself. These negative emotions can feel like they've swallowed you whole; you yearn to feel calm, light, and free so you can enjoy your life, your relationships, and your own company again.

As a licensed addictions counselor and mental health practitioner with Club Recovery I understand very well the nature of Gambling Disorder and see myself in the people I serve. I have come to develop my perspective on treatment from my own journey in recovery. My goal is to help patients with true insight of Gambling Disorder, how it has effected them and their families, and develop an understanding of this still very misunderstood aspect of the disease of addiction. My gambling treatment program utilizes a cognitive-behavioral model that focuses on raising awareness of one’s emotions, thoughts and behaviors related to gambling.

I have been a therapist for individuals, couples, and families for over 15 years. I provide counseling for those who want help with sexual concerns, disordered eating maintenance/body image recovery, prenatal/postpartum issues, relationship strains, trauma symptoms, and problematic drinking/sober curiosities. I want to understand what it is you hold most dear and find meaningful in your life and relationships. By doing this, I can help you identify and navigate how to align with your values, intentionally, through awareness of unhelpful patterns and incremental behavioral change.

My father was an alcoholic who drank to coverup anxiety and depression and eventually died from it. His life and subsequent death has had a significant impact on me. I couldn't save him but I realized from an early age that I wanted to help others with their problems. Perhaps you have a difficult situation or feel stuck or discouraged. Together we will work to build a supportive and safe relationship; identify and clarify issues; help you tell your unique story; and develop strategies for action so that you can make positive changes and move forward in your life.

I enjoy working with children, adults and families who are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or parenting issues. I also work with couples who are struggling with communication, infidelity or other relationship conflict. My clients described me as supportive, and encouraging. I use cognitive behavioral therapy methods as well as insight oriented therapy to help clients develop and grow. I like to use the metaphor of a lotus flower to describe life's path. The flower is deeply rooted in the bottom of the rivers and ponds where it survives.

Yeah, you’re going to like Laura. She’s got a great blend of sass and softness. Clients bond with her quickly, and they tend to really love working with her. Working with Laura feels like meeting a friend for brunch on a Sunday. There can be conversations full of laughs and insight, or there can be conversations that are much softer and get to some really tough topics.
