LGBT therapists in Boulder, CO

I enjoy working with clients ages 16+, but most of my clients are 25-50. My clients come from a variety of backgrounds and careers such as educators, engineers, nurses, students, stay at home parents and those between careers.

I was born and raised in Cincinnati, OH and hold a Master degree from Xavier University. You can expect a safe and comfortable environment as we dialogue to help you sort through emotions. We may delve into your past but we won't dwell there because your energy is needed in the present moment as you look within yourself to find peace and the power to be your true self.

PLEASE NOTE: I am licensed in CO/FL/TX but accept insurance only in CO/FL/TX. Self pay option is available at $95 for in person sessions and $60 for tele-health.

Hi, I’m Laura and I specialize in helping women and teens heal from trauma, whether it shows up as anxiety, overthinking, people-pleasing, or feeling completely disconnected from themselves. I experienced trauma growing up and know firsthand how it impacts the whole body.

Through Somatic therapy, Brainspotting, and EMDR, I help clients release what’s stuck in their bodies and rebuild trust in themselves—because healing isn’t about “getting over it,” it’s about feeling safe again.

Welcome to my professional profile! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 7 years of experience helping individuals navigate anxiety, stress, trauma, and other mental health challenges.

There are seasons in life when you're trying to understand who you are while also carrying the expectations of everyone around you. You may be navigating a new chapter in motherhood, questioning your relationships, exploring your identity, or feeling weighed down by anxiety that's become difficult to manage on your own. Whatever brings you here, you deserve a space where you can show up exactly as you are and feel genuinely supported. I provide virtual therapy for adolescents, adults, and older adults throughout Nebraska, helping people navigate anxiety, LGBTQIA+ concerns, maternal mental health, and relationship issues while also supporting women's issues, family challenges, trauma, stress, infertility, identity exploration, panic disorders, and cultural experiences that often become part of life's biggest transitions. My goal is to help you feel understood, reconnect with your strengths, and move toward a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling.

I am a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to delivering comprehensive, patient-centered care. I have advanced training in mental health assessment, medication management, and therapeutic support for individuals of all ages. I work with clients dealing with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma-related issues, and ADHD. My goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where clients feel heard and respected.

I’m glad you’re here — taking the step to look for support shows your strength, and I’d be honored to walk with you. I work with adults, children, and teens who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or simply, life. In our work together, we’ll create a warm, collaborative space where you’re heard, seen, and your goals matter.

Like many, I live in and love the state of Colorado. Any chance I get I'm out exploring the outdoors. It provides balance in my personal and professional life.

As a dual-certified Family and Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner I share my interests with clients I see.

When I was working full-time as a Family Nurse Practitioner I saw an unmet need in clients finding a balance in their physical and mental health. I decided to return to school to strengthen my knowledge in psychiatric mental health care.

For the past five years my focus has included seeing clients with substance dependence, MAT treatment, ADHD, Major Depressive Disorder, Bipolar Disorder and Schizophrenia. I especially enjoy the 1:1 experience via telehealth seeing clients in the comforts of their own home.
