About
Laura
Hi, I'm Laura, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I am passionate about creating a safe and trusting relationship with clients experiencing overwhelming feelings and thoughts. Together we can create coping skills to increase self-confidence; and encourage autonomy, self-determination, and personal growth.
I identify as a proud, family-oriented Chicana/Mexicana/Latina. I love to read, listen to music with some spontaneous dancing, loom knitting, gardening, and solving various types of puzzles. I especially enjoy spending time with my husband, my adult children, and our 6 cats and 2 dogs.
