About Laura:

Since 2006, Laura has helped thousands of people heal and reclaim aspects of themselves lost, stolen or forgotten by addressing and healing root issues, transform pain, bridge science, research and the practical magic of sacred, ancient traditions… with honor and integrity.  She is an experienced multi-generational multi-discipline healer & intuitive, psychic medium, Jikiden Reiki Teacher, best-selling author, speaker, award-winning advocate, spiritual teacher, sacred activist, former college educator, and survivor of domestic violence and sexual assault.

She’s apprenticed with an Osteopathic Physician for more than 20 years learning holistic health and preventative care and has also studied with indigenous teachers and lineage holders based in Japan, Ireland, and the Americas servicing a clientele who are diverse and inclusive from various ethnic cultures, skin color, religious beliefs, sexual orientation, and socio-economic backgrounds.

In 2022, Laura published two books. She’s the co-author of “Feisty: Dangerously Amazing Women Using Their Voices to Make an Impact”. Her chapter, “#MeTooFamilyCourts”, highlights what it takes to leave a domestic violence relationship in a broken system that punishes you.

Her first solo book published in October 2022, “The Secrets To Healing: An Invitation To Healing Trauma And Other Root Causes of Chronic Illness Using the Japanese Reiki Gokai” weaves her personal story, her work, the science, and the teachings with nine client case studies.

Laura currently sits on the Massachusetts domestic violence task force addressing legislation and policy for survivors of abuse.  Through her decades of advocacy & policy work, she puts difficult – sometimes unpopular – ideas into words that communicate well, yielding to possibilities, healing, change and growth.

As a guest speaker, she addresses intersectionality and root systems, provides proven practical ways to elevate and emPOWER others quickly… in a way bringing an authentic unique view with a unique talent and skill sets uncommon today.
