Marriage and Family Therapist
Hi, my name is Maura, pronounced like Laura with an M!
I think therapy starts with the relationship.
At Wounded Haven, you’re not a diagnosis, a treatment plan, or a number on a schedule. You’re a person. I believe the work happens when you can sit across from someone who is real with you, someone who listens, remembers your story, cares about what happens next, and is willing to challenge you when you need it.
I’m the same person in the therapy room that you’d meet outside of it. I bring my training, experience, and clinical knowledge into the room, but I’m not here to be the expert on your life. I’m here to walk alongside you, help you make sense of what you’re carrying, and help you move toward whatever comes next.
You don’t have to perform here or have the right words. You don’t have to know exactly what you need before you walk through the door.
You get to come as you are. We’ll figure out the rest together.
Therapy Services
Areas of Expertise
Marriage and Family Therapy
I have specialty training in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), AIR (Adaptive Internal Relational) Network Model, Permanency and Adoption Competency Certificate, Basic Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), play therapy and lifespan attachment issues.
I enjoy working with family systems and providing a "youthful" approach to issues impacting kids, parents and couples today.
Over the years, I have gained experience and passion working with trauma and attachment injuries as it greatly impacts an individual's ability to connect with others. This leads to various relational concerns with friends, partners, children and co-workers.
I have been working in the Mankato area for nearly 12 years, working with all age groups. My special interest in empowering women, often working closely with moms and daughters to improve self confidence, communication and helping them find their voice.
TESTIMONIALS
"In my two years of therapy with Maura, I have made more progress than the 15 years of therapy prior to meeting her. I believe this is because she is honest, straightforward, caring and didn’t just tell me everything I wanted to hear."
"Maura has helped me navigate years of childhood trauma I have tried to repress and avoid. She does this by creating a safe and supportive environment and through her vast knowledge. I am so thankful for her and the progress she has helped me made so far in the short time we have been working together!"
