Couples Counseling Therapists in Friendswood, TX

I work with lots of clients that are struggling in their most important relationships, whether it's marriage or family. We sometimes feel stuck, or just plain exhausted in all our attempts to improve things alone. This is where a trusted helper can make a difference. I enjoy the process of helping couples and families understand the factors that are at play in their relationships and how to improve them.

Laura provides individual, marital, and family therapy for a wide variety of both clinical and non-clinical issues. Areas of special interest include marital conflict, mood disturbances (anxiety and depression), emotional abuse, divorce and stepfamily issues, low self-esteem and boundary problems, trauma recovery, relationship skills, neuropsychology, and faith-based counseling (if requested).

My goal as a counselor is to first set a foundation of comfort, in a NON-FORMAL, environment. Second, build a professional bond becoming aware of clients' presenting issues and or challenges, then finding subjective tools that are client centered. Clients will quickly learn I'm here to support and encourage them in a less formal role than traditional counselors. I'm not a touchy- feely counselor but do approach my sessions with empathy. I have a very expansive history of highs and lows in life and learned myself that a little outside help can be life changing. - Proud US Veteran

I engage well with clients from varying ethnicities, and clients that might describe their experience as unique.

Seeking out therapeutic services is a big deal! It can be a challenge to find someone you feel safe with to share challenging emotions and discuss difficult experiences.
