Laura Wise, MA

I initially had my doubts about working with a therapist so much younger than I am. But how wrong I was. I left a horrific marriage, and as a bi woman, really needed some help adapting to new surroundings, making new friends and dealing with my sexual preferences. I am so grateful to Laura for her compassion and skillful guidance. I would recommend her to anyone, of any age, and recommend her highly. I felt heard, and supported.

The moment I met Laura, I knew it was right. Her passion for helping people was very clear from the beginning and it immediately made me feel comfortable in an environment that usually takes quit awhile for me to warm up to.
My mom has always been a strong advocate for everyone seeing a therapist and put me in therapy at a very young age. I don’t know if it was this approach that made me apprehensive toward therapy in my adult years but I’ve struggled with finding the right one until now. Laura’s specialties are across the board and is also very affordable, which is perfect for me. I can’t say enough how grateful I am to have found someone who cares so much about their clients. Highly recommend.

After shopping through many therapists I was blessed to finally find the perfect match. Laura Wise has so much compassion in her practice for her clients it clearly shows. She automatically made me feel comfortable within minutes, which does not come easy for me. She doesn’t just listen passively, but also asks questions to help challenge and break barriers in a positive and constructive way. I highly recommend her to anyone dealing with grief, queer issues, family issues, and personal identity crises. Her experience is not exclusive to these by any means. She can also cater to a wide range of financial needs. Her innate empathy and sweet nonjudgmental demeanor creates the most supportive and safe environment. I would recommend her to everyone I know.

Theres a lot of crappiness in lifes journey and it can leave you feeling uncertain of yourself or defeated even. Laura’s righteous, proactive way of living her life comes out in her aura, her essence… and as a result she inspires those around her to actually stand for something… to empathize instead of disregaring… to be a participant and not a bystander… to see the beauty in ourselves instead of constantly picking ourselves apart… to love those around us; that we can all simultaneously support one another while standing in our own individual greatness.
Laura has the gift of CONNECTING and INSPIRING… Her specialty is LGBT and women’s empowerment but her gift, to help people, applies to all human beings. She is one of those rare souls. with a heart so big that she can connect with alllll people. In the sweetest voice, with the most authentic, loving eye contact, it’s as if she’s saying,”…hi there :) I am here for you if there’s something you want to talk about… it is safe… you are safe… I’m listening…“
Whatever it is that is most crippling, painful or unhealed in your life, Laura Wise can help you get through it and to grow from it.

Laura Wise is raising the bar for individuals seeking affective counseling. Her approach is humble and leaves you with a sense of gratitude. Talking with Laura has brought insight both during and outside the session. I highly recommend Laura Wise as a professional counselor.

I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Laura Wise. I’ve been to a couple other therapists that I felt didn’t fully connect with my needs, but Laura has been 100% caring and compassionate every step of the way. I’ve been able to have my children see her as well, which has really created an integrated approach to healing and moving forward as a family. She works with sliding scale prices so we can all get the support we need. I’m so relieved and so happy that I’ve finally found someone that so obviously cares about her patients and can help me and my family transcend to the next level of our personal evolution.

Laura Wise is passionate about helping her patients. Her friendly, caring demeanor makes her very approachable. She is insightful, reflective, and compassionate. I would highly recommend Laura Wise as a professional counselor.

Ms. Wise is thoughtful and accepting. Her caring approach has given me important insights. She’s intelligent, compassionate, and easy to talk to.
