Laura Jarvis Brackett, MEd, LPC, LCPC, NCC

Trauma Therapist & Educator

Please note: Laura is not currently accepting new clients.

Welcome, and way to go on looking for support!

I am a St. Louis-based Licensed Professional Counselor who specializes in supporting adults who have been through trauma. As a trauma survivor myself, I understand the ways it can impact our minds, emotions, bodies, behaviors, and relationships. I am a forever-student, always seeking more insight into trauma recovery including the lived experiences of people who don’t share my identities as a white, cis-het, mostly able-bodied woman. My hope is to help you untangle your experiences, recognize your needs and strengths, and decide how to live a life that feels right for you. I do my best work with adults who are dealing with:

• Past childhood abuse (physical, mental, emotional, sexual, and neglect)

• Toxic or abusive environments (work, religious, families)

• Complex trauma, often diagnosed as personality disorders

• Difficult relationships with parents or the families you grew up in

• Physical and sexual assault

• Chronic pain or illness

• Medical trauma

• Dissociation

• Depression

• Anxiety

To help you get a better idea of what I’m like as a therapist, here are a few ways clients and colleagues have described me:

• Non-judgmental

• Casual

• Funny

• Animated

• Warm

• LGBTQ+ ally

• Comfortable with swearing

• Won’t ask you to do anything I wouldn’t do, or haven’t done

Please note, Laura is not accepting new clients at this time.
