Getting to know Lara Touckly
I am a curious, authentic, genuine, and very human therapist. I love working with people who want to do the work. I am here to provide a safe space that will foster vulnerability and growth. Therapy is so hard sometimes. I am here to make that pill a little easier to swallow. We fall into times where we are stuck in an unhelpful perspective, don’t have sufficient self-love, or have just run out of hope. I am here to support you in getting unstuck, changing your perspective, increasing your self-love, and reminding you that there is hope. Just because we don’t see the light at the end of the tunnel doesn’t mean it’s not there.
In the nature of being authentic: If you’re looking for a cookie-cutter therapist, I am not the one. If you want heavy homework or worksheets, I am not the one. I am very human. At times, I cuss. Because, at times, life just fucking sucks. I am also very open to feedback. If something is helpful, let me know. If something isn’t helpful, definitely let me know! I have the mental health portion of my job down, but you are the expert in you.
I earned my Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from the University of San Diego, which has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to support you on your journey.
What should a new client know about working with you?
"During our first appointment, I will ask around 865 questions in attempts to know you the fastest way possible and gather information needed so that we can collaboratively create a treatment plan. A HUGE part of therapy's success is therapeutic relationship, so the first session is a good time to see your therapist's energy and find out if we're a good fit! Goals for each client are very different and ranges from coping with emotions, to managing relationships, to processing challenges. I believe one of the key components to change is self-love. My goal is to hold space, highlight strengths, and support clients in seeing themselves through a lens of self-love and self-worth in order to help them support themselves in achieving their goals."

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.
