Working with Laura has been an amazing decision and I am so happy she has guided me over the last year. I came to Laura not with any specific eating challenge, but I was an irrepressible nail-biter and no matter what I did or how much willpower, rewards, previous counseling, or even negative conditioning I tried, I always found myself falling back into the same patterns and then chastising myself for not being strong enough to break this habit.These responses played out even at times of success and appreciation from others. Laura collaborated with me to identify and address the complicated causes of why and how I interpreted everyday emotional conflict in both my perceived failures and successes, so that I could then take small steps to address how it manifested in my nail-biting.A year later, I am proud of the work we did together to soften these impulses significantly longer than I can remember and the success I feel when I look at my hands today. Laura continues to stay a resource as needed, and I am so glad I invested the time and resources in her program so she could help me dig into my root causes. Her collaborative approach and guidance improved my life far beyond my nail-biting impulses and I could not recommend her highly enough.

When I initially started working with Laura, I had one main goal… to lose weight. I had been trying to lose weight (and keep it off) for years and had struggled. Laura took the time to not only learn why I wanted to lose weight, but also explored deeper underlying issues as to why I could never lose weight and keep it off. Some of the struggle stemmed from emotional issues and others from motivational issues that made facing weight loss much tougher. In expressing this personal and confidential information to her, I felt 100% comfortable that her coaching would help me overcome these obstacles.The difference in working with Laura is that she outlined we would not get immediate results and set those expectations from day one. She also confirmed with me that we were on the same page and asked for updates along the way as to if anything had changed so she could be flexible in her coaching. We worked together to take baby steps toward achieving my goal and implement healthy practices that would last a lifetime, not just a few months. And, the baby steps were easy and produced results! I was starting to feel healthier, find more balance and become happier overall!I would highly recommend Laura and her wellness coaching.
