Great to meet you!

A native Angeleno, Laura believes that healing emerges through intentional everyday practices that transform into rituals of self-care. One of the many phases she often quotes in session is “The magic is in the baby steps.” Using an intersectional and strength-based framework Laura approaches therapy as a collaborative process to navigate the complexities of the individual lived experience, culture, and interpersonal relationships.

My approach to therapy

As a therapist she supports and identifies the strengths and internal resources clients are inherently born with and promotes the connection to self and community. Laura strives to create a warm and empathetic environment to promote self-expression, curiosity, and unearth unconscious behaviors that are creating friction in the present. She has been successful in helping professionals, artists, and creative individuals to create healthier relationships with their inner and outer worlds.

What you can expect from me

The hope is to support the development of your insight and behavioral shifts to create an opportunity to improve your overall wellness. Laura believes therapy first starts with learning the language of our emotions and in collectively working to grow your communication skills, awareness, confidence, and self-regulation.
