More about Lauri

- LMHC, LPC
As a licensed therapist with over two decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex emotional circumstances. My practice uses a holistic approach that helps to address challenges such as depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, and life transitions. This includes therapeutic strategies and problem solving while also exploring the mind-body connection and building foundations for meaning.
My approach is collaborative and focused on helping clients develop self-acceptance, improve communication, overcome anxiety and rediscover their life purpose. The skills I find most helpful were developed through my own experience with depression and burn out. My process with holism helped me see that there is a life beyond coping that offers more options toward resilience, growth, and purposeful connection.
In our work together, I prioritize creating a supportive, non-judgmental space where you can explore your experiences, develop coping skills, and move towards a more fulfilling life. My goal is to empower you to understand yourself more deeply and recognize your wholeness. From there it is easier to make positive, sustainable changes that reflect the person you really are.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
