Testimonials
- “I was questioning if this time would be worth the investment and I could tell by lunch the first day that it was. Laura has an uncanny ability to translate what I am thinking & feeling but don’t have words for! The help in organizing that and giving me language was invaluable. The ability to hold focus and no allow us to go down a lot of rabbit holes allowed us to move forward in some very hard conversations. We are excited to take these concepts home and apply!” – March 2023
- “This is what healing feels like. I have wanted this for so long!” – April 2023
