Getting to know Laurel Bourgeois
Working in admissions for psychiatric and detox services for six years sparked my desire to work with a diverse range of clients, from those coping with depression and anxiety to addiction and trauma. While I continue to hold all clients close to my heart, in recent years, I have developed a passion for working with mothers—single moms, those with partners, working moms, those trying to conceive, those who are grieving, and those simply needing a hot cup of coffee… oh wait, that is all of us! Despite this passion, I remain open and excited to work with all populations.
With a Master’s in Social Work from Case Western Reserve University and a Bachelor’s degree from Hope College, I bring a broad foundation of education and experience to my practice. Having witnessed clients at their lowest points during inpatient or intensive outpatient admissions, as well as at their best after completing therapy, my goal is to support you every step of the way through your life journey.
What should a new client know about working with you?
If you are seeking someone to listen when it is warranted, challenge when needed and offer continuous support and encouragement, I am your woman! Grab a hot cup of coffee and see if we would be a great fit. I look forward to starting your journey with you soon!
What is your typical process for working with clients?
I typically utilize a mix of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as well as DBT in my practice. During the first session we will explore your past and what led to you entering therapy. From there we will work to set goals to optimize our journey together. We will work to challenge your negative thoughts and strengthen your confidence in tackling difficult obstacles moving forward.
