“I was really nervous before my appointment, but Laura set me at ease. She listened to me, made me feel comfortable, and we made a plan to get my anxiety under control. My only regret is that I didn’t seek her help sooner.”

Getting to know Laura Houwers
Hi, my name is Laura. I am a dually certified Psychiatric Mental Health NP and Certified Nurse Midwife, with a Master’s degree in Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing from Herzing University. You deserve a provider who works with you as a partner in your healthcare. I strive to help you achieve your mental health goals, whether through medication management or the addition of alternative approaches.
I believe in empowering individuals to make informed decisions about their care. I see my role as providing the education and resources necessary to support those choices. I’d love to work with you to find what is best for you in this safe space.
Are you ready? Let’s work together!

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

Laura is awesome. She has been very responsive to my needs and discusses medications with me in a way I understand. She makes sure I don't run out of my medicine and works quickly on prior authorizations. Her practice also accepts my insurance.
