Laura Boettger

Laura Boettger is a Florida-licensed LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) with over 10 years of professional experience supporting adults through anxiety, depression, trauma, and major life transitions. She is especially focused on helping people who have been involved in cults or other high-control groups or relationships, offering a supportive, nonjudgmental space to make sense of complex emotions, questions, and the impact these experiences can have, including post-traumatic stress and complex post-traumatic stress.

Whether someone is actively leaving a high-control environment, reflecting on past involvement, or feeling uncertain about a current situation, Laura works as a steady ally while clients explore what happened, what it means for them now, and what healing can look like moving forward. She is trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), and she draws from a range of therapeutic techniques that can be non-directive and exploratory or more structured, depending on what feels most helpful in the moment.

Laura also supports people navigating the in-between seasons of life, when change feels disorienting rather than exciting. Transitional periods, whether expected or sudden, can bring loneliness, doubt, and a sense of being unmoored from identity and direction. Her approach is tailored to each client’s needs and pace, with attention to trauma-related concerns such as dissociation and the overwhelm that often accompanies uncertainty. With collaboration and care, she helps clients sort through their situation and identify a clearer pathway toward the life they want.
