Hi, I’m Laurel.
I feel honored to walk alongside you as you embark on this journey of finding yourself. As your therapist, it is a privilege to join you in your pain and help you create meaning from your darkest places.
My passion lies in aiding individuals and couples in healing from past hurts, discovering new parts of themselves, transitioning into healthier relational patterns, and establishing meaningful connections.
Your therapy experience will be shaped around your goals. Together, we will focus on what holds the utmost importance for you, and I will incorporate modalities and frameworks that align with your specific needs.
My aspiration is for you to have a reparative experience that mirrors your strengths and resiliencies, empowering you to live to your fullest potential.
My Education and Approach
In my therapeutic approach, I strive to create a warm, collaborative, thought-provoking, and experiential environment. My work with individuals and couples is grounded in the foundations of attachment theory, emotionally focused therapy, and trauma-informed psychotherapy.
I hold a Masters of Social Work from York University in Toronto, Ontario and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York State, New Jersey, and Connecticut. Additionally, I am certified in the Integrative Trauma Program from the National Institute for the Psychotherapies, and have received advanced training in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy, EMDR, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy.
Take the first step towards making a positive difference in your life.
