Just a few years ago, I was caught up in a cycle of self-doubt, shame, and failure. I was early on in adulthood, and already I felt completely worn out; I was convinced my life would end in ruins. Eventually, I was able to seek counseling, and this became a significant factor in helping me find a new sense of hope and freedom. I became a counselor out of a desire to share this gift with others. I aim to create a safe space where my clients can discover new hope on their journey. When you walk into my office, I want you to know that you are welcome here; you belong, and you matter.
I am a licensed marriage and family therapist and work with individuals, couples and families.
I work to support individuals, couples and families of all sexual orientations, gender identities and ethnicities. I use a Narrative approach and Brainspotting. Please reach out if you are struggling. I look forward to meeting with you.

I have a Bachelor of Science in Occupational Therapy and a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have worked in the healthcare field for over 30 years in a variety of settings including hospitals, home health, and mental health facilities. A highlight of my career was being able to provide healthcare and mental health services while volunteering in China, India, and serving in Peace Corps Mongolia.
In my free time, I enjoy spending time outside surrounded by trees and near a river or creek. I enjoy learning and make time to enhance my own personal growth. I also like to play games, ski, and listen to podcasts.

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.

Frequently asked questions


Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Boulder
Searching for therapists in Boulder starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare Boulder therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, training, and approach match your needs. Provider bios can help you see whether a therapist focuses on methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Boulder is a smaller market, so local in-person options may be more limited depending on your schedule, neighborhood, and preferences. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Colorado. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can also show how a therapist describes their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Boulder can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see an estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
