Hi! I’m Laura McCorry, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who’s passionate about helping adults navigate life after loss. My practice focuses on death-related and non-death related losses, partially specializing in sudden/unexpected loss. I use an eclectic approach that’s tailored to you specifically, pulling from many different modalities. I am an EMDR-trained therapist and love using that modality in session to assist with re-processing difficult events, experiences, or emotions in our lives. I am an interactive and relational therapist so we’ll look at what you’re experiencing in the therapy room and explore ways that might show-up outside of therapy. I also work psychodynamically, which helps me get a full picture of what has shaped you from early childhood up until now. I also use ACT and DBT to work on understanding and soothing our emotions while pursuing a life that feels important to us (even if, in grief, that just means a life that feels survivable). Often while grieving we’re met with unsolicited advice and assumptions around how we’re ‘supposed’ to cope and feel- my goal is to create a space where you can show up just as you are, without someone telling you how you’re feeling is wrong. I started my practice to offer the non-judgmental support I wish I had when I was grieving the unexpected loss of my partner years ago. Although we can’t ‘fix’ your grief, you’ll feel supported, heard, and learn ways to cope with the anxiety, trauma, loneliness, and intense emotions that come with it- completely at your own pace. Grief lasts as long as love lasts- let's find a way to carry it.
