I wish I had started therapy sessions sooner, I adore my therapist Laura. She has such a calming energy that makes me feel comfortable to share what’s been on my mind, like I’m sitting with an old friend. She listens patiently and lets my mind wander to wherever it needs without missing a beat. She always leaves me feeling lighter, with a brighter outlook on where I’m at and a more positive view of myself as a person. I’m so grateful that I was matched with such an amazing therapist!

I am licensed in Minnesota as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Prior to this journey, I worked for ten years as an advocate for victims and survivors of intimate partner and sexual violence. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & coping with life changes.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
