Trauma can take many forms. It may show up as PTSD or C-PTSD, childhood trauma, emotional abuse, sexual assault, or the ongoing effects of intergenerational trauma. These experiences often leave lasting imprints on us. Laura provides a safe and supportive space to work through these traumas and attachment concerns, helping clients untangle what feels overwhelming, reclaim their voice, and begin to heal.

Anxiety can take many shapes. It may appear as constant overthinking, rumination, or panic, or it may be tied to relationship stress, family issues, or major life transitions. Anxiety often seeps into how we connect with others, making even daily interactions feel draining. Laura helps clients understand the roots of their anxiety and offers strategies to create more peace, clarity, and confidence in their lives.

Grief can touch every part of life. It may follow the death of a loved one, infertility struggles, or other profound losses. Grief can feel overwhelming, unpredictable, and isolating, affecting both our inner world and relationships with others. Laura provides compassionate support as clients navigate the complexity of grief and bereavement, honoring both the pain of loss and the possibility of healing.

A previvor is someone who carries a hereditary cancer risk (such as BRCA or Lynch syndrome) but has not had cancer. This experience can bring unique challenges including genetic testing, ongoing medical surveillance, and difficult decisions about prophylactic surgeries or fertility. It often also includes complicated family dynamics, decision fatigue, and the need to constantly advocate for yourself in medical settings. Laura provides a supportive space to process these challenges, help you feel less alone, and feel more grounded and empowered in navigating both medical care and everyday life.

Identity and tradition can be deeply meaningful and, at times, complex. For Jewish women, this may involve navigating questions around religious identity, spirituality, dating, infertility, sexual identity, or coping with antisemitism. Laura has extensive experience working within the Jewish community and provides a therapeutic space that honors cultural values while supporting each client’s individual needs and voice.
