Question 1

How is couples therapy different from individual therapy?

Accepted Answer

In couples therapy, the relationship itself is the focus — not just one person. Laura works with both partners together to improve communication, rebuild trust, and navigate the specific pressures that entrepreneurship puts on a relationship.

Question 2

Do we have to be in crisis to start couples therapy?

Accepted Answer

Not at all. Many couples come in proactively — to strengthen communication, prepare for a major transition, or simply invest in their relationship the same way they invest in their business. Earlier is almost always better.

Question 3

What if one of us is not sure about therapy?

Accepted Answer

Ambivalence is normal. A first session is low-commitment — it is a chance to meet Laura, ask questions, and see if it feels like a good fit. There is no pressure to continue if it does not feel right.

Question 4

Can we do sessions remotely?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All sessions are conducted via secure telehealth, so you can join from wherever you are in Washington State — even if you and your partner are in different locations.

Question 5

What modalities do you use for couples work?

Accepted Answer

Laura draws on Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Relational Life Therapy (RLT), and attachment-based approaches. These are evidence-based methods with strong outcomes for couples navigating high-stress environments.
