Laura LongLCSW

Nice to meet you
I work with individuals experiencing a wide-range of issues, including depression, complex trauma, mania, suicidal thoughts, self-harm, and psychosis. My therapeutic approach is to serve as an active collaborator as you face the challenges of the present while making sense of the past. I tend to be a good fit for therapy skeptics and those who are willing to work but have struggled to feel understood by other providers.
I began my career supporting court-involved clients experiencing severe and persistent mental illness. I currently work in hospital-based intensive outpatient treatment in addition to providing individual therapy.
