I have been seeing Lauranell for a number of years. I told her recently that I had a "love/hate" relationship with her.......for she is an individual who challenges me. I love that, but it IS Hard Work..... and sometimes, admittedly, it is the most intense kind of work and I hate it. Just, I suppose, as a toddler hates to be told, "No," or a teenager hates to be held accountable, she has often helped me discover my own voice with which to say, "No!" and encourage me to hold myself accountable. She is a dynamo with quick wit, good instinctsm an enduring patience and endearing grin. I would reccomend her to anyone.... in particular those dealing with mood disorders, relationship issues, PTSD from domestic violence or anxiety.
They always return my phone calls quickly. I always know that I'll get a prompt answer to my question. Every time I come here they always remember me by name and greet me as soon as I walk in the door, even if it's been months since my last appointment. They are so thoughtful and amazingly sweet, I just love this place. They always go above and beyond to help me with anything I need. They never complain about anything, and I know I can always count on them. They've answered a couple of my questions over the phone, but most of the time I have to schedule an appointment. It was very easy to get an appointment. They have a very flexible schedule and get me in quickly every time.
Lauranell's warmth, compassion and understanding are helping me tackle old old stuff which will enable me to handles stress better and cope with life with greater comfort and flexibility. She listens with her whole being and has made a fast and important connection with me.
Lauranell is just what the doctor ordered. Her frank, open and congenial way is and has been a boon to my mental wellbeing. Though she is quick to afford all the credit for stability and personal growth to me as her client, her gracious support balanced with spot-on insights have thoroughly convinced me that she is a therapist to be trusted professionally with my best interests at heart.
