Laura Skally
Welcome! I realize life can be a whirlwind, full of highs and lows. It is my belief that we all deserve to have someone accompany us on life's journey, particularly during difficult or dark times. I have expertise in treating anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, ADHD, life transitions, and stress. I am prepared to work collaboratively with you to recognize your strengths, identify the obstacles in your path, and find new ways forward to a place of hope, healing, and peace. I believe it is important to work with you collaboratively. An integrative approach to therapy is used, tailoring the sessions to you and your unique needs. I have 25 years of experience in the mental health field. Ten of those years have been as a therapist. I am a certified mood disorder professional (CMDP) and certified in dialectical behavior therapy (C-DBT). I am neurodivergent-affirming and gender-affirming. First and foremost, this is a safe space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, ideas, and beliefs. In our first meeting, I want to understand why you are seeking therapy and what you want to get from the process. I'd also like to begin to get to know your story. In addition, it is an opportunity for you to ask me any questions as well. From there, we will work together to find the solutions that suit you best.
