COACHING

Coaching with me happens at the intersection of ontology, well-being, creativity, and a healthy dose of imaginative magic. We'll design goals that feel uniquely "you" and trailblaze your own path. I work with a limited number of clients for a year, guiding them to realize their visions and sustain their dreams with joy. As a credentialed coach and former trainer of coaches, I truly love and respect the balance we find between structure and creativity to bring your future visions to life.

"Laura was recommended to me by a former boss who noticed how I would intentionally diminish myself... She introduced me to Laura, and we had one or two initial Zooms to get to know each other and commit to working together.

I’ve been impressed by Laura’s method, which is unexpected, whimsical, buoyant, and almost sneakily, surprisingly effective... Laura keeps reminding me and nudging me to think outside the box and to catch my inner negative, nay-sayer voice.

She helps me frame my dreams into projects with really, really small, accessible steps that can lead me there. We also talk about seasonality – that not every season has to be Focus-Project mode... It’s fully about self-love and intuition.

I’ve come to our sessions with something heavy on my mind, and we end up talking about this for the hour... our sessions are fluid – not a rigid agenda – which is exactly what I need.

I was intimidated by her group “office hours” at first, but now I find them really nourishing. Some of the lessons my cohort share resonate deeply and guide me strongly.

Laura’s sweet spot is professionals in creative fields. And while I don’t share her Disney-level fantasy prowess, I’ve experienced the magic of that lens... Like the “Meeting with Dumbledore” reflection – it was beautiful, effective, and reminded me that we don’t show up for ourselves kindly or completely enough."

"As a psychotherapist, I deeply value the power of insight, emotional healing, and self-awareness. When I had the opportunity to work with Laura, I was looking for clarity, direction, and practical momentum around a specific goal. In two sessions, she helped me untangle my thoughts, connect with my values, and walk away with a clear, actionable plan.

What I appreciated most was how coaching complements therapy. Where therapy often looks inward and backward to process and heal, coaching looks forward, with structure, accountability, and a results-oriented focus. It helped me translate insight into movement. Working with Laura was energizing, motivating, and deeply affirming. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to gain direction and take meaningful next steps in their life!

The coaching sessions helped me identify a sense of self that I've struggled to understand for most of my life. It was a relief and a joy to finally feel this part of myself."
