Laura Williams is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who holds a Master of Arts degree in Psychology from Antioch University in Seattle, WA. As a certified expert in EMDR therapy and a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional, she brings extensive knowledge in treating trauma and related symptoms. Laura works with individuals and families facing various challenges, including painful relationships, impaired self-esteem, and feelings of unhappiness or anxiety. She respects her clients' competencies and encourages their full participation in the healing journey. Laura's therapeutic approach integrates multiple theories including EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Family Systems. By analyzing family dynamics and the roles individuals play within their family context, her therapy often elicits a range of emotions such as anger, guilt, sadness, and fear. These reactions are typically transient, and clients can expect to navigate mixed feelings as part of the therapeutic process. Utilizing a range of techniques rooted in these theories, Laura considers client feedback essential to tailor the most effective methods for their healing.
