Laura J. Southern, MSEd., LPCC
For the past 13 years, Laura has provided recovery and healing to individuals that have been through some type of traumatic experience.
She appreciates that each person has inherent strengths to find their own course to healing. The approaches she uses are adapted to the
individual’s values, spiritual practices, and cultural perspective. She believes that each of us know what we need, but sometimes require
guidance, encouragement, and structure from a trained professional.
Laura has counseled in many settings, including hospital outpatient and inpatient. Also she has practiced in community mental health agencies,
private practice, and in the client’s home. In addition, Laura provides a variety of workshops on topics of trauma, refugee mental health, communication skills,
and relationship building. She is Advanced Trained in Critical Incident Stress Management, Level II trained in EMDR, and is a trained Mediator through the Franklin County Courts.
