Getting to know Laurel Chace

Hi there, I'm Laurel! My name is Laurel Chace, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master’s in Clinical Psychology, Marriage, and Family Therapy from Pepperdine University. I am passionate about supporting young adults and adolescents by providing guidance for a variety of issues, such as day-to-day stressors, depression, anxiety, identity exploration, and life transitions. If you find yourself in need of support in any of these areas, I am here to walk with you in finding solutions and skills to move through challenges that may feel intimidating to face alone. My approach My approach to therapy is casual, warm, and engaging, with a sprinkle of my own personality and sense of humor. I prioritize helping clients access the validation they might more readily offer others, emphasizing internal acceptance while gently challenging thoughts that may hold them back. I have received extensive training in crisis intervention and de-escalation, as well as interventions for passive suicidal ideation, superficial self-harm, and struggles with substance abuse. The modalities I utilize include DBT skills (dialectical behavioral therapy), solution-focused therapies, and relational therapies. My focus I primarily work with young adults and adolescents, most of whom are experiencing anxiety, depression, and interpersonal difficulties. My communication style I hope sessions feel like a space to settle in, collaborate, and explore how to find your peace together. I bring my personality and sense of humor into the work, blending compassionate validation with direct feedback. My journey to mental healthcare I have been an empathic and sensitive person to the emotions and struggles of others since childhood, often gravitating toward those who did not have an easy path through life. Although I began my educational journey uncertain of where it would lead, it ultimately brought me to this meaningful career.
