About Me

I’m Laura Fairbanks, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping clients move beyond survival and into more authentic, fulfilling living. My integrative approach combines evidence-based therapies—including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)—with mindfulness and contemplative practices that honor the whole person.

I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, relationship challenges, life transitions, and identity exploration, weaving together mind, body, and relational perspectives. In therapy, I strive to create a supportive, collaborative space where you can feel understood, explore new possibilities, and build resilience. I believe that healing is not only about easing distress, but also about rediscovering your innate capacity for growth, balance, and meaningful connection.
