Meet Laurel

Many of my clients come to me feeling immensely confused, anxious, helpless, and exasperated by someone else’s narcissistic, controlling, manipulative, or abusive behaviors.They feel isolated and as if no one could possibly understand what they experience behind closed doors.They know something isn’t right in their relationship, however they struggle to put words to their overwhelming experiences. 

As a Board Certified Professional Christian Counselor, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I combine Biblical Truth with proven therapeutic methods to help individuals:     
               

  • ​Identify imbalances of power and respect that make relationships abusive

  • Rediscover their God-given worth

  • Establish strong, Biblical boundaries without guilt

  • Protect their children from toxic influence and confusion

  • Rebuild their peace, confidence, and relationships with God and others

​​

Through my audio sessions, podcast, books, and monthly newsletters, my hope and prayer is to give others Divine wisdom and Biblical strategies that assist them in breaking free from narcissistic control and chaos so they can have peace and reclaim what has been stolen from them.
