About Laura

At difficult times, you may experience anxiety, depression, or stress. You may become overwhelmed, have difficulty concentrating, have sleep difficulties, or struggle at school, work, or in your relationships. Gaining control can sometimes be difficult, and it can help to have someone guide you along the way. I can help you on your journey to feeling better. With support and acceptance, we will work to better manage, heal, grow, and improve your well-being.

 

I am a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) offering individual psychotherapy services in-person and online. I am currently completing my practicum as part of my Master of Arts degree in Counselling Psychology.

I work with adolescents aged 15+ and adults from a variety of backgrounds. I offer a safe and non-judgmental space for everyone I work with. I strive to work collaboratively with my clients to achieve a better understanding of the perpetuating factors related to their presenting issue. I work with individuals facing anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and multicultural issues (e.g., struggles with cultural identity, integration, and discrimination).

In my work, I draw upon several modalities, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Mindfulness-based Therapies, and Trauma-Informed Care. I

will carefully tailor my approach to meet your needs.

Having lived both abroad and in Canada, I have acquired diverse life experiences. I have previously worked as an attendant to students with disabilities. Through work and lived experiences, I have gained invaluable knowledge of empowering marginalized populations. I strive to be an advocate for each of my client’s well-being. I am also Mental Health First Aid Certified. Previously, I completed a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Psychology with a concentration in Forensic Psychology.

I understand that everyone’s journey is unique. Therefore, I aim to provide an environment, catered to your needs. With compassion and understanding, I invite you to venture on your path towards healing.
