Sessions In Person in Campbell or Via Telehealth My passion is to help teens and young adults who are struggling with mental health and life transitions. I am able to connect with youth – they feel understood, supported, and acknowledged. I use humor during sessions while challenging clients in a helpful and constructive manner. I support clients in the goals they identify by utilizing their strengths and interests, and accepting them for who they are. I provide realistic and applicable strategies to improve daily life. I seek to understand what the individual is going through and provide a space to feel comfortable, yet motivated. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa995eabca79b7a7032b862/1605302988327-QT7GSP3IWIUDWP0OA2XK/image.jpg About Dr. Laura - I understand and empathize with my clients. I also experienced anxiety and depression at different points in my life. My earliest memory of anxiety was in 4th grade, when I transferred to a new school. I often missed school due to feeling extreme nervousness – to the point that I became physically ill. There are stressors in life that trigger mental health challenges, even though we may have been managing well before. For me, there were various events that prompted declines in my mental health. For example, the Columbine school shooting happened when I was in middle school and my school-anxiety peaked. In more recent years, throughout pregnancy and postpartum, anxiety and depression came to visit me again. (How kind of them!) Anxiety and depression are like a cold we catch every now and then. Some people have stronger immune systems than others and some folks just happen to catch colds more often. Sometimes the cold lasts a long time and we try everything to manage it until we decide it’s time to finally go to the doctor. I can help you find ways to feel better. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa995eabca79b7a7032b862/1605302333188-AM87JPGDB98SU8K0XJ1L/IMG_0273.JPG About Dr. Laura - There is hope. I relate with clients who struggle with some of the same issues I experienced, and show that there is hope in learning how to cope and overcome. Allow me to support you or your loved one, and help you during this particularly stressful time. Fun Facts: I love to dance, swim, hike, and learn about different cultures through travel and cuisine. https://kaleidotherapy.com/online-therapy daily 0.75 2023-08-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa995eabca79b7a7032b862/1273a542-b144-4037-b785-d619b473b494/Therapy+for+Anxiety.png Online Therapy - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa995eabca79b7a7032b862/1605587453606-ZPE3KGZ7INYXQVUOB9VF/image-asset.jpeg Online Therapy - Phone Sessions I also provide sessions via telephone if you do not have access to video, consistent Internet service, or are uncomfortable using the video conferencing platform. https://kaleidotherapy.com/therapeutic-approach daily 0.75 2023-08-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa995eabca79b7a7032b862/1619643456594-5ZDYV99PYV4YY7XAXPJU/CBT.jpeg Therapeutic Approach - Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) CBT is a therapeutic approach that is effective for a wide range of problems. It is based on the idea that unhelpful ways of thinking and behavior patterns contribute to our emotional responses and mental health issues. I can assist you with noticing and addressing your thinking or behavioral patterns. In CBT, you learn better ways to cope with problems, and as a result, you will notice a decrease in symptoms and an increased effectiveness in your daily life. I will collaborate with you to understand the problem and develop a treatment plan that fits your needs. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa995eabca79b7a7032b862/1619645860470-YNHZUYFT4QFXT3TNHSIQ/DBT+Therapist+Santa+Clara Therapeutic Approach The Four Components of DBT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa995eabca79b7a7032b862/1619726794844-8W5NCAIN30PJOQ7V3OGB/Teen+Therapist Therapeutic Approach - Practice makes progress There may be times in sessions that we complete exercises, provide a worksheet for you to do, or send you off with a strategy to practice. Just like any skill – perfecting an instrument or a sport – you need to practice and apply the strategy outside of lessons. Over time, you will be able to change your thoughts, distressing emotions, and problematic behaviors and make every day better. https://kaleidotherapy.com/faq daily 0.75 2026-03-08 https://kaleidotherapy.com/our-team daily 0.75 2026-03-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa995eabca79b7a7032b862/215488e4-8b87-4a9c-bcf9-0093588dc6a5/Formal.jpg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa995eabca79b7a7032b862/23c74c2d-57f6-45a5-a11f-31710d7c0632/image0.jpeg Our Team https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fa995eabca79b7a7032b862/cb7bf473-0aea-4369-9547-53ca778c4727/Full+body.webp Our Team https://kaleidotherapy.com/appointments daily 0.75 2026-03-08 https://kaleidotherapy.com/adhd-assessment daily 0.75 2024-04-30
