Helping you heal the physical, emotional & financial impact of dysfunctional family dynamics so you can create the peace, success & happiness you deserve.
i see you…
I’ve been where you are.
Feeling that same stress of spinning my wheels and falling short of my full potential. All while living a life that didn’t align with my values.
Raised in a family that ignored my emotional needs, I married into one that did the same. In 2009, that marriage ended marking the beginning of my journey away from self-abandonment.
Since then, I’ve immersed myself in research and education about dysfunctional family dynamics and their far-reaching impact.
I realized complex PTSD as the source of my self-sabotage. And I’ve learned the secret to self-parenting through self-compassion and inner child healing.
Now a sought-after speaker on family scapegoating and narcissistic abuse recovery, I’ve appeared on television, radio, and podcast productions like Adult Child, The Love Fix, WFLA Bloom TV, Warm106.9, and dozens more. Here are a few of my media appearances.
You’re an ambitious woman interested in personal growth, knowledge and wisdom. You have plenty of self-discipline but still feel like you hold yourself back from what’s truly possible for you.
You’ve read all the books and done the therapy. You’ve repeated the positive mantras. And even though you’ve reached a certain level of success, you wonder if you’ll ever get where you want to be.
You’re either playing small instead of shining your light, or over-achieving to prove your value. Life feels like it’s passing you by and you’re beginning to wonder if real, lasting change will ever come.
You spend the day with your shoulders up around your neck, the physical and emotional symptoms too painful to ignore. The idea of spending the rest of your life this way is no longer tolerable to you.
my favorite quote
“IT IS OFTEN THE MOST SPIRITUALLY HEALTHY AND ADVANCED AMONG US WHO ARE CALLED ON TO SUFFER IN WAYS MORE AGONIZING THAN ANYTHING EXPERIENCED BY THE MORE ORDINARY.”

experience life-changing transformation that lasts, instead of surface strategies that stop when the sessions end.
“The weekly sessions were beyond my expectations. I started them thinking they would help me not fall into my old patterns again, but they did so much more than that. They helped me from the very first one to drastically change my daily experiences in a huge way. Laura offered me unexpected tools that are so plentiful I can keep working with them for many years to come, whilst at the same time being very specific to my day to day life.” -Katrien V.
