More about Laura Geftman, LCSW

Okay, let me guess - life feels like a lot right now. You're overwhelmed, drained, and stuck in patterns that just aren't working anymore. Maybe you're questioning your relationships, struggling at work, or wondering why you feel so disconnected. That glass of whiskey, wine, or weed isn't helping like it used to. With nearly 20 years of experience, I use Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help you process difficult emotions, release what's weighing you down, and reconnect with yourself. Together, we'll create a path toward feeling more grounded and at peace. I help people work through anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, and feeling emotionally drained. ART helps resolve distressing memories quickly, while IFS helps you understand and care for the parts of yourself that feel stuck or overwhelmed. My approach is compassionate and direct - focused on helping you feel more grounded and in control of your life. I earned my Bachelor's degree from Boston University and hold a Master's in Social Service from Bryn Mawr College, which have shaped my understanding and approach to therapy. You don't have to figure it out alone. While you might not feel it right now, you know you're ready for change. I'd be honored to support you as you take the first step toward relief and clarity. I'm out-of-network with insurance, but we can explore ways to make it work. You're worth the effort - reach out when you're ready.

Laura is very relatable and you can tell she is invested in your words as she listens intently and provides excellent feedback to what you have to say.
Laura had all the things I was needing in a therapist. Her ability to be patient and connect were very impactful. I am grateful for being able to find a therapist that helped me grow and develop.

As a professional, Laura is thorough, quick to respond and incredibly collaborative. I've recommended Laura to several of my patients with great success!
I have had the privilege of working with Laura for awhile and I can confidently say that she is a top-notch professional who has truly made a positive impact on my life. From the first session, she created a safe and non-judgmental space where I felt comfortable sharing my deepest concerns and fears. She is compassionate, empathetic, and skilled in helping me navigate difficult emotions and situations. She has also been great in helping me develop new insights, coping skills, and strategies for self-care. Beyond her expertise and professionalism, what sets my therapist and now friend, apart is her warmth, humor, and genuine care for my well-being. She goes above and beyond to make sure I feel heard, understood, and supported. I appreciate her willingness to share her own experiences and vulnerabilities, which has helped me feel less alone. I couldn't recommend anyone better!
Look no further- Laura Geftman, LCSW is seriously the best of the best. I can’t recommend anyone else. A true professional who really cares.
