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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA+ Therapist in Denver, CO
Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in Denver starts with looking for identity-affirming care. A therapist who offers affirmative therapy, has experience with gender-diverse clients, or lists relevant training such as WPATH-informed care may be a stronger fit for support related to identity, relationships, family dynamics, anxiety, depression, or life transitions. Reading a therapist’s profile can help you see whether their listed specialties and approach match what you want from care.
Denver has many therapy options across neighborhoods like Capitol Hill, Five Points, Baker, and LoDo, but a larger local market can make it harder to narrow the search. Some people prefer an office that is easy to reach from home, work, or transit, while others use virtual sessions to access more LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists across Colorado. As you compare options, look for therapists who explicitly mention LGBTQIA+ populations in their bios, offer appointment times that fit your schedule, and provide a free phone consultation so you can ask about fit before booking.
Therapy in Denver can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs and understand what you may pay before your first session. Headway helps you compare LGBTQIA+ therapists who are accepting new patients, review bios, check estimated session costs after entering your insurance, and book directly when you’re ready.
