Providing calm in a stressful world (warmth and humor included)
Laurie Levine LCSW
Welcome to a safe space for growth and healing
If you are looking at this site, you or someone you care about is probably struggling with a life issue. This is the first step to healing, easing the pain and finding more joy in your life.
As a therapist I work with people who want to make positive changes and feel better. Be it depression, anxiety or grief and loss, these can all be debilitating situations that affect daily functioning and overall happiness. I help to lighten the burdens.
Your Herndon Therapist
DOES FACING THE DAY FILL YOU WITH DREAD?
HAS PROFOUND GRIEF STOPPED YOU IN YOUR TRACKS?
HAS ANXIETY BEGUN TO INTERFERE IN YOUR DAILY LIFE?
ARE YOU STRUGGLING WITH WORK/FAMILY BALANCE?
Are your teen’s grades terrible?
Does your adopted child struggle to make healthy relationships?
I get it!
Together we will begin the healing process. I listen, you vent, we laugh and there are tears. Slowly, the weight becomes lighter and, one step at a time, hope and relief transform into peace and joy. It's scary, but it's worth it!
peace
it does not mean to be in a place
where there is no noise, trouble or hard work.
it means to be in the middle of those
things and still be calm in your heart.

My Philosophy
“I am anxious all the time.” “I can’t get out of bed.” “My teen is making poor choices.” Why would you want to come to my office, pay me money and tell me your personal thoughts and feelings?
Therapy is about change. People that decide that they are ready for a change in their lives or that they are tired of doing the same thing over and over again and not feeling any better may feel ready to try talk therapy.
I provide a safe and confidential space for you to share. My clients find that they enjoy talking to me because they know that their confidences stay within the privacy of my office free from judgement or criticism. My clients have found great relief and peace after sharing their stories. It can be freeing to talk to someone that is not in your family or your inner circle; it provides an unbiased listener who is here for you and only you. Giving yourself the time and space to focus on you is often one of the best gifts you can give yourself.
