Laura Vance

Being a therapist perfectly combines my love of people and passion for mental health and wellness. I am excited to work alongside my clients, providing support tailored to their specific goals — because I believe no one is a better expert on you than you.

I've had the privilege of working with individuals from diverse backgrounds, addressing concerns such as anxiety, depression, addiction, and trauma. My experience includes working in community mental health and prior to becoming a therapist, supporting survivors of domestic violence as they navigated the legal system.

Clinically, I draw from evidence-based approaches including Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and I am trained in the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) criteria. These tools help me meet clients where they are and empower them toward healing and growth.

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and nonjudgmental. We'll work at your pace, focusing on what matters most to you, and building the tools you need to move forward with greater clarity and resilience. Whether this is your first time exploring therapy or a familiar part of your self-care journey, you are welcome here. I look forward to working with you.
