Laurel Lass, LCSW
Welcome! My name is Laurel Lass and I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) since 2002. I offer on-line therapy to adult individuals and couples. Caring about our pain is the beginning of the healing process. Care supports us in embracing the "unknown” in spite of our fears. It helps us to heal and to explore what we really want in life and to create that. I work with individuals and couples to support them on their path to look within and discover their inherent value. And to learn how to engage with others in more meaningful and satisfying ways. Let me know if I can support you.
