Hi. I’m Laura.
I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), currently completing my Master of Counselling Psychology at Yorkville University and being supervised by Danielle Culbert. I strive to create a warm, welcoming environment where clients feel comfortable sharing their experiences, confident that they will be met with empathy and respect. I am a mother, a student, and a professional.
I believe in working collaboratively, meeting clients where they are, and supporting them in reaching their goals. My approach is holistic and rooted in collaboration, compassion, and humour. I emphasize the importance of a strong therapeutic relationship and employ carefully chosen, evidence-based interventions. I am deeply passionate about helping those impacted by trauma and have both personal and professional experience with the challenges faced by first responders and their families.
I believe in creating personalized treatment plans that include the following modalities: cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), trauma-focused approaches, psychodynamic work, and mindfulness-based practices. I aim to select methods that resonate with clients’ unique needs and backgrounds. I see change as a process that develops within family, cultural, and social systems, and I bring an inclusive perspective and mindset to the therapy space.
With over 20 years of experience supporting adolescents and adults in various settings, I am here to assist clients in developing self-regulation skills, strengthening relationships, processing trauma, understanding neurodivergent diagnoses such as ADHD, and managing different life transitions. I warmly welcome clients from all backgrounds and am dedicated to providing culturally responsive care that respects and
