Getting to know Laura Hileman

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California. I received my Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology from Santa Clara University and have been practicing for 5 years. I enjoy working with individual adults to help them increase self-awareness, realize their full potential and purpose, and heal from relationship or attachment trauma. My clients are often going through difficult life transitions, anxiety, depression, or searching for and asking some of the deeper questions in life. They may be thinking things like "Why do I keep doing this?", "Why do I feel stuck?", "Why do I feel like I'm not truly being myself?", or "How do I handle these emotions?". My approach I believe our attachment styles & early relationships can form certain dynamics within us that cause us to recreate those relationship patterns later in life with romantic partners, co-workers, family members, children, or friendships. Attachment style therapy involves you & I developing a strong empathic attunement in therapy, which can help us to uncover your style and current approach to creating attachments. I use a Psychodynamic approach in therapy to help you gain insight into deeper aspects of yourself, including things you may not even be aware of that are affecting your mood & choices. I also believe in helping you gain the ability to identify your emotions & increase your experiential awareness and confidence in your ability to process and gain insight from them. In a session, I would listen intently, ask reflective questions, or ask you to pause and consider what emotion you are feeling. I also use a Humanistic or Person-Centered approach in therapy because I believe in also being an open and authentic person with you in the therapy room. I want to reflect back to you what I hear you saying to help you gain better self-awareness, insight, and clarity. I want to help you feel empowered in knowing yourself, finding your confidence, and accepting yourself.
