Professional statement

Laura Otton is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in maternal mental health, anxiety, depression, and trauma. She loves working with pregnant and new mothers during one of life's greatest but most difficult transitions. Her background is working with young adults struggling with anxiety, depression, and the lasting effects of trauma. She provides Telehealth appointments at this time.

Laura's practice incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques, trauma-informed care, mindfulness, and strength-based perspectives to support client's personal growth. This translates to healthier self-concepts, stronger self-esteem and confidence, and more balanced, fulfilling relationships.

Those who work with Laura consistently provide feedback that she is warm, caring, and an effective therapist. She looks forward to meeting with you soon to begin the journey to wellness!

Message to clients

When you are struggling with current or past difficulties, challenges, and overwhelming feelings, you deserve to have a space that is kind, caring, and non-judgmental. I know that the best environment for therapy is one that is safe and supportive of each person to grow into their unique potential. By using evidence-based practices and creating clear goals, I provide an effective therapeutic space to help each person learn healthy coping strategies, build self-awareness, and grow the confidence they need to feel better in all aspects of their lives.
