Helping you heal the physical, emotional & financial impact of maternal narcissistic abuse so you can create the peace, success & happiness you deserve.

i see you…

I’ve been where you are.

Feeling that same stress of spinning my wheels and falling short of my potential. All while living a life that didn’t align with my values.

Raised by a narcissistic borderline mother, I married someone with a covert narcissistic mother. In 2009, that marriage ended, marking the beginning of my journey away from self-abandonment.

Since then, I’ve immersed myself in research and education about dysfunctional family dynamics and their far-reaching impact.

I realized complex PTSD was the source of my self-sabotage. And I’ve learned the secret to self-parenting through self-compassion and inner child healing.

Now a sought-after speaker on family scapegoating and narcissistic abuse recovery, I’ve appeared on television, radio, and podcast productions like Adult Child, The Love Fix, WFLA Bloom TV, Warm106.9, and dozens more. Here are a few of my media appearances.

You’re an ambitious woman who has achieved some success, but can’t help feeling you were made for more.

You have plenty of self-discipline but the far-reaching effects of maternal narcissism hold you back from reaching your full potential.

Adding insult to injury, your blind spots prevent you from seeing the extent of the impact on every area of your life.

You’ve read all the books and done the therapy. You’ve repeated the positive mantras. And even though you’ve tried every self-help strategy under the sun, you can’t stop repeating the same patterns.

You’re either playing small instead of shining your light, or over-achieving to prove your value. Life is passing you by and you’re beginning to wonder if real, lasting change will ever come.

You spend the day with your shoulders up around your neck, the physical and emotional symptoms too painful to ignore. The idea of spending the rest of your days this way is no longer tolerable to you.

experience life-changing transformation that lasts, instead of surface strategies that stop when the sessions end.

“The weekly sessions were beyond my expectations. I started them thinking they would help me not fall into my old patterns again, but they did so much more than that. They helped me from the very first one to drastically change my daily experiences in a huge way. Laura offered me unexpected tools that are so plentiful I can keep working with them for many years to come, whilst at the same time being very specific to my day to day life.” -Katrien V.
