¡Hablamos Español!

I am Dr. Laura Fernandez, founder of Mindful Freedom Psychological Services. My degree is in clinical psychology at the doctoral level. With extensive training in Neuropsychology and a practice focused on narcissistic abuse recovery, complex trauma, and self esteem/advocacy; I approach treatment in a holistic manner.

 

Therapy is aimed at helping you address the emotional, physiological, and the cognitive sequelae of trauma. I employ real life experience based on years of observations and outcome analysis with other patients coupled with up-to-date knowledge (gained through consistent continuing education training), and evidence-based treatments. The setting: a safe space where you can be the real you! and where healing occurs at your own pace.

I view our work together as exactly that — both of us working for your benefit, where we are equals and I am a guide assisting you in your self-discovery, healing, and personal growth journey.

— What to Expect When We Meet And Beyond —

Real Life Experience
Meets Professional Knowledge

My approach centers on building a genuine human connection, combined with evidence-based treatment and applying practical real life experience to everyday issues.

My main aim: to help those recovering from abuse/trauma become aware/mindful and free themselves from the barriers that keep them stuck.

 

When we meet, you will experience a combination of professional knowledge and real human warmth; with a flexible overall approach to therapy allowing for both structured and unstructured methods of therapy that will create a safe, non judgmental environment. I bring warmth, humor, and undivided attention to every session.

 First Session 

Getting to Know Each Other

Your initial session is an opportunity to connect, share your story, and evaluate if we're a good match. We will discuss diagnosis, goals, and a personalized treatment plan.

There is no commitment to return because you met with me for an initial session — it's about finding the right fit for both of us.

 Follow-Up Sessions 

Your Ongoing Journey

Once you decide that you will be returning and we both confirm we are a good match, that is where your commitment starts!

 

There will be an expectation that both of us will be at each session prepared and fully present, ready to engage and work hard!

 

Each 55-minute follow-up session combines structured and unstructured approaches. You'll be encouraged to provide feedback on your progress. Treatment duration depends on your needs — we work as a team toward your goals.

An Integrated Healing Plan, Unique To My Practice

forest-card.png

I am passionate about helping those who have endured narcissistic abuse as well as other forms of trauma heal holistically by providing an individualized, tailored to you, unique to my practice "healing plan."

 

Through my years working closely and consistently with survivors of trauma, particularly narcissistic abuse, I have developed a plan of action consisting of over 14 factors that combined help heal from trauma in a manner that addresses physiological, cognitive, and emotional health.

 

The plan has consistently delivered positive results and includes amongst other: DBT techniques, specific journaling prompts, mindfulness and CBT skills, amongst others.
