I also provide psycho-education, assessment, and skills-building for clients struggling with ADHD. I have specialized experience working with survivors of family or relationship violence.
Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, grief, or depression take hold. If you’re feeling stuck, exhausted, or unsure of how to move forward, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your feelings at your own pace.

I have been in practice over 20 years. As a young man struggling with depression and anxiety, therapy saved my life. My lifes purpose is to pay back the favor and help those who continue to suffer. I have extensive experience with chronic pain, PTSD, depression, anxiety, and relationships.
I work with every client as a unique individual. Rather than looking at what is “wrong” with a client, I focus on the inherent health of the individual. I believe many behaviors, feelings, and styles were at one point a healthy and creative adjustment to a difficult situation. I assist people in developing awareness around this process and empower them to make new choices that may serve them better.

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.
I specialize in working with women who feel stuck in patterns such as people-pleasing, overthinking, perfectionism, difficulty setting boundaries, or feeling disconnected from themselves. These patterns are often rooted in developmental and relational trauma and can continue to impact relationships, self-worth, and emotional well-being. My approach is integrative and trauma-informed, drawing from EMDR, Brainspotting, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help clients heal at the root of their struggles.

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 Denver
Denver offers a wide range of mental health therapists, from central neighborhoods like LoDo and Capitol Hill to areas near Cherry Creek, Highland, and beyond. When you search for therapists in Denver, start by identifying the kind of support you want, such as help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief, or major life changes. Then look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and approach match those needs. Some therapists may highlight methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care in their bios.
In a large metro area like Denver, having many options can make the search harder to narrow. Practical details matter, including appointment availability, office location, virtual session options, and whether the therapist is accepting new clients. If commute time, parking, or transit access affects your schedule, virtual therapy with a Colorado-licensed therapist may give you more flexibility. Reading therapist profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and whether a free phone consultation is available.
Therapy in Denver can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway makes that process easier by helping you find therapists who match your preferences, check coverage for your specific insurance plan in Denver, and review upfront cost estimates before you book. You can browse profiles, review availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
