Laura Whisman
My areas of specialty include first responder/military PTSD, substance abuse, trauma, anxiety/depression, and mindfulness. I am EMDR trained and have extensive experience utilizing EMDR to resolve trauma associated with first responder experiences, accidents, grief/loss, military combat, childhood sexual abuse, domestic violence, and more. My work, as well as my personal life, is grounded in mindfulness. When we train our attention to stay in the present moment, we become much more aware of the stories we tell ourselves and how much suffering we experience as a result. In addition to EMDR, I enjoy utilizing Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) which helps clients learn how to accept those things that are out of their control, and commit to changing those things that can be changed to make lives better. My practice has evolved into primarily working with first responders and veterans. As such, I have developed a deep appreciation for dark humor, colorful language, and casual dress. New clients are often surprised by how quickly they settle into comfortable interaction, even when discussing extremely traumatic experiences.
