LICENSED THROUGHOUT WASHINGTON STATE

Online Therapy for Women Who are
Holding it All Together

From the outside, it looks like you have it handled. Inside, it rarely stops. I work with women throughout Washington state who are carrying anxiety, ADHD, OCD, postpartum changes, or perimenopause and who are ready to feel like themselves again. Sessions are virtual, confidential, and built around a life that's already full.

Does This Sound Familiar?
“I feel so far from myself — and from my partner, even from my baby.” “I have these thoughts I can’t control, and I’m scared I’m failing.” “I just want to feel like myself again... but I don’t know where to start.” “I’m completely exhausted, but I have no idea how to stop or slow down.” “I’m always bracing for something — I don’t remember the last time my mind actually rested.” “I love my people, but I still feel disconnected and distant from them.” “I second-guess everything and feel like I’m never doing enough.” “I look successful on paper, but I feel stuck and burned out.” “I put on a smile, but inside I’m anxious, overwhelmed, and exhausted from trying to hold it all together.” “My mind won’t stop racing — it’s constant what-ifs, worst-case scenarios, and intrusive thoughts.”

If Any of This Sounds Like You, You’re in the Right Place

“I put on a smile, but inside I’m anxious, overwhelmed, and exhausted from trying to hold it all together.”

“I just want to feel like myself again... but I don’t know where to start.”

“I second-guess everything and feel like I’m never doing enough.”

“I have these thoughts I can’t control, and I’m scared I’m failing.”

Laura Meader

It all starts with trust.

Hi! I’m Laura, a psychotherapist and licensed independent clinical social worker offering online therapy for women across Washington State. I specialize in helping moms and women who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, intrusive thoughts, perfectionism, infertility, or the invisible mental load of motherhood.

If you’re in a postpartum season, feeling stuck in your head, or worn down from trying to hold it all together, you’re not alone and you don’t have to navigate it by yourself. Therapy can provide the space to breathe, slow down, and reconnect with what matters most, without judgment or pressure.

In our work together, you’ll learn to quiet the inner critic, manage intrusive thoughts, set boundaries without guilt, and return to yourself with more ease and self-trust. You don’t need to be “fixed”, you deserve to be supported. And with virtual therapy, you can show up exactly as you are. Babies are always welcome, no makeup or sitter required.

MY APPROACH

Evidence-based, and never one-size-fits-all


I draw from a range of approaches depending on what you're working through, exploring how your thoughts, behaviors, and nervous system responses were shaped, and how to shift the patterns that no longer serve you.

The goal isn't to overanalyze or fix you. It's to build awareness, self-compassion, and tools that bring more calm and clarity into your daily life.
