About Me

Hi, I'm Laurien (she/her), a licensed clinical worker (LCSW) and a somatic psychotherapist. I nurture inner relational healing and facilitate the transformation of trauma. I’m also a mom, wife, and dog mom/handler. I love being and running in nature, being by water, connecting with others, and I also value solitude. Colorado has been my home for twenty-one years. My therapy dog, Bee, loves people and offers her support too.

I have been a body-centered therapist since 2004. Early in my career I supported individuals and groups as a licensed massage therapist, Zen Shiatsu practitioner, and Yoga instructor. I have worked in clinical and community mental health settings since 2018. Issues that I am adept in offering support with include individual and relational anxiety and conflict, shame and disconnection, trust and betrayal issues, attachment and intergenerational trauma, codependency, grief, and loss. All that you’ve been carrying is welcome. I offer a safe space where it’s okay to not feel okay.

My approach is rooted in empathy, empowerment, and transformation. I believe our bodies are designed to heal on every level, including the healing of trauma in our nervous systems. I’m grateful for the therapist guides who have supported me in my healing journey, and I engage in regular somatic therapy consultations to be able to stay present and sharp with my clients, myself, and my family.
