Laurie's Process

When you first call Laurie Grengs Counseling, plan to spend up to a half hour discussing your situation, reviewing insurance, and setting an appointment at a time that is convenient for you. Some clients schedule appointments weekly; others schedule once a month depending on the urgency of their situation. In the first appointment, the therapist learns about your needs and discusses initial recommendations to give you more specific ideas of how your healing journey will unfold.

Treatment Approaches

Laurie Grengs Counseling utilizes a holistic approach, studying the whole person and using a range of proven methods personally tailored to each patient:

Sometimes, a combination of psychological approaches is key to healing and living a fulfilled life. Supporting your journey with non-medicated approaches (i.e. supplements, exercise, or meditation) can vastly improve physical and mental health. Laurie Grengs Counseling also offers counseling with a spiritual component upon request.
