Dr. Laura Riness

Dr. Laura Riness

Therapist

Virtual • Minnesota


Hello, my name is Laura Riness. I have a Ph.D in Psychology and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. I have worked in the mental health and psychoeducational fields for approximately 15 years. I have most enjoyed getting to know my clients and working with them to create the most healthy version of themselves.

I earned my doctorate in Psychology in 2013, and my independent license (MN) in 2017. I am most passionate about reducing the stigma associated with seeking mental health services, as well as making services accessible to as many people as possible. My other interest is encouraging people to try virtual therapy. It can be more convenient, and really is no different than face-to-face therapy. Give it a try! The same guidelines apply whether in person or via telehealth. You will be seen and respected no matter what!
