You have probably been carrying something for a while without saying it out loud: anxiety that will not switch off, grief that still ambushes you, drinking that stopped feeling like a choice, or trauma your body has not put down. Helping people find their way through that feels like my sacred calling. Ever since I was young, I've been the person who deeply listens, and I've always sensed the healing that happens when we finally have a trusted, compassionate witness to our story. The story you carry about your past can be the source of your suffering or the key to your freedom, and together we can gently begin to shift it. Whatever pain you're holding, you don't have to hold it alone. I work with individuals, and with couples and families who want to find their way back to each other.

Laurie Raymond

Therapist

Virtual • Arizona


Hi there. My name is Laurie Raymond. I’m an Arizona mom and grandma who also happens to be a licensed professional counselor and I truly love what I do!

My style as a therapist is warm, supportive and down-to-earth. I work with individuals ages 16 and older, with the goal of helping people feel safe, understood and hopeful as they learn how to better cope with life’s challenges.

I use a trauma-informed approach and am trained in EMDR, Accelerated Resolution Therapy (A.R.T.), CBT and other evidence-based therapeutic approaches.

Before becoming a therapist, I worked on camera as a television news anchor and reporter in several states including CBS here in Arizona. That experience gave me the privilege of hearing people’s stories during some of the most difficult and meaningful moments of their lives and deepened my appreciation for human resilience.
