Currently Accepting New Clients

Welcome to Bloom Psychotherapy, my name is Laura Bell. Being human can be hard and I believe we are all doing the best we can with what we have. As a result of past traumas or painful relational experiences, people create coping mechanisms to protect themselves from further harm. While ingenious at the time of creation, most often these ways of coping have unintended consequences once they’re no longer needed. These unintended consequences often show up as feeling disconnected from oneself and important others, and a struggle to live and relate freely as one’s true self.

Living inauthentically while out of sync from self or others can lead to experiences of anxiety, depression, loneliness, worthlessness, moodiness, anger, hopelessness, silencing needs, rage, loose boundaries, people-pleasing, confusion, frustration, and health problems, amongst many others. As counterintuitive as it may seem, enlisting gentle curiosity instead of judgment is essential for healthy growth, change, and healing. Counseling provides this non-judgmental space so one can safely begin to understand, empathize with, and hold compassion for methods of coping and relating that are keeping them stuck in painful patterns.

It takes courage to reach out for and accept support. Together, at my North Scottsdale location or via Telehealth, we can understand what is going on, bring to light what feels too scary or shameful, empower you to access your innate wisdom, and build awareness around the creative methods of self-protection that may be keeping you in a cycle of suffering. With increased awareness, new perspectives reveal themselves so you can begin to transform how you approach yourself, your life, and your relationships.

Contact me to schedule a free, 15-Minute consultation so we can discuss if working together is right for you:
