Laura offers two forms of one on one work.

The ORACLE

According to the ancestral view, each soul seeks harmonious integration with the primal laws of being.

Whenever we are stuck or confused, we need to access the soul’s guidance on how to stay on course toward this integration.

Oracle sessions help you to articulate your confusions and conundrums and to seek an inner answer for them.

You will experience a wide variety of techniques from a vast terrain of cultural traditions that Laura uses to induce a state of receptivity to the intuitive voice of the soul. No prior familiarity with this type of work is required.

In the process, you will uncover resources for addressing your present challenges and learn lifelong skills for working with the soul.

STRUCTURE: The ORACLE is scheduled in packages of 3 x 90 minute sessions on sliding scale fees based on your income.

Soul Journey Therapy

At its greatest depths the soul participates in the primal structure of being. Heeding the wisdom of these depths we are brought into alignment with the order of the cosmos.

The deep intelligence in our soul is our best possible guide, our resource for healing, and our path toward love and wisdom.

In SOUL JOURNEY therapy, we work on the dialogue between everyday life and the intelligence of the soul. This can bring about transformation on many levels.

This therapy draws upon Jungian depth psychology, neuroscience-based approaches to trauma, somatic experiencing therapy, and ancestral shamanic healing traditions.

Soul Journeying helps to:

Heal old and recent trauma

Support personal wholeness and harmony with the Earth

Integrate shadow and resolve self-limitation

Unfold creativity and care

Transform relational attachment patterns

Deepen intuition and dreams

REQUIREMENTS: Basic familiarity with at least one area of this therapeutic approach (somatic work, shamanism, dream work, Jungian psychology or trauma therapy) is required.

STRUCTURE: We begin with a 4 session intake process, meeting weekly. After this intake, we decide upon a longer term plan in terms of number and frequency of sessions.

SESSION FEES: are on a sliding scale, with your place on the scale determined by your financial resources.

Scholarships are available for exceptional individuals with a demonstrated commitment to the care of our communities and the Earth and currently experiencing economic distress.

WHO IS THIS FOR? This work supports anyone who seeks healing of acute or developmental trauma upon a holistic path. It is also for those working on greater personal integrity through self-understanding, shadow wrestling, and spiritual growth.

“Working with Laura for the past several years has felt like a constant buoy to my life's ups and downs. Getting to dive into somatic and imaginal waters together, and feel the connections woven from session to session, has brought me a depth of support I didn't know would be so comforting and necessary in my own expansion. Laura offers beautiful practices and reflections in our time together, and holds a lot of space for me to experience whatever is emergent during our time. I am grateful for the ways this work has brought a quality of richness to my experience of being alive.”- Molly, artist, herbalist 

“I was fortunate enough to have discovered Laura during a great shift in my life. Each session I learned more and more about myself, especially the parts of my unconsciousness that were holding me back from healing on an emotional but also physical level. I can’t recommend Laura enough to anyone looking to discover themselves on a deep level.” - Marie, Osteopathic physician  

“In my work with Laura, I was gently guided inward to explore the landscape beyond the surface of my conscious mind. After each session, I felt lighter, more free, open, and centered. I noticed that thought patterns and ways of being that I felt stuck in began to dissipate.” - Ayla, wellness facilitator

“Thank you for your wise and intuitive holding during this big transition in my life. Our time together has been a really meaningful touchpoint where I can find my footing and push deeper into this wild unknown. Your willingness to walk with me has been such a gift.”- LN, storyteller  

A note from Laura:

I have an undergraduate degree in Cultural Psychology and a graduate degree in the Anthropology of Human Development. I am trained in Isadora Duncan holistic dance, Integrative and Waldorf education, Jungian and Archetypal psychology, Somatic experiencing and neuro-scientific trauma therapies, Ayurvedic psychology, Celtic and Native American shamanism, Bioenergetic psychoanalysis, and BodySoul Rhythms.

I began creating integrative educational and artistic-therapeutic programming in 2003 and made my living through this work until 2017. During this time, I created a wide variety of programs and festivals, gatherings and rituals, some of them through my School of Myth & Movement.

Since 2017, I have focused on creating innovative approaches to trauma healing, dream work, and soul counseling.

In 2024, I completed training in Bodydreaming therapy, an approach that integrates many pieces of my previous work. This method brings somatic experiencing, attachment therapy, developmental psychology and the neuroscience of trauma into Jungian psychology.
