about Laura
Licensed Marriage, Family Therapist, and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor
Hi, my name is Laura Baird. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in California, and have been practicing across San Diego county since 2015. I received my Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from Argosy University, and my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology with a Studio Art Minor from The Ohio State University.
I have training in Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Trauma Informed Care, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Focused-CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Internal Family Systems, Art Therapy, crisis intervention, and strengths-based treatment. I am experienced in working with children, teens, adults, and families in a variety of settings including in home, in the community, through telehealth, and in office.
I am very client centered in my approach. I come from a background of working with clients who have experienced crisis and trauma, and am passionate about supporting clients move out of crisis, begin healing, and transition into a place of thriving. In my approach, I support clients in connecting with their strengths while working towards their goals in an empowering way. I enjoy finding the best treatment and techniques that will work for you. I provide a non-judgmental and safe environment to process experiences, heal, and grow into who you want to become. My goal is to support you in deepening your connection with yourself and your inner voice.
I have experience working with clients experiencing a wide range of concerns, including traumatic stress symptoms, attachment difficulties, depression and other mood disorders, anxiety, challenges with self-esteem, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, spirituality concerns, and trouble managing anger.

"Huge shout out for Laura! We came here about a year ago looking for help for my teenage daughter after having great experiences with marriage therapy as well here. Laura jumped in and helped my daughter with our crisis after we found her trying to harm her self, and struggling with depression. We Called Good Therapy and they had a great recommendation for Laura because they said she was great with kids. They were not wrong and my daughter has been going in person as well as zoom for about a year. She is doing great today, and I can’t think Laura enough for the work she did with , my beautiful girl. Thank you for your professionalism, compassion, and friendship… There is no greater gift."

"I came to see Laura for help with navigating the grieving process. I find her to be helpful, empathetic and I felt a lot of relief much sooner than I expected. She strikes a good balance between forward progress and checking in to make sure I'm comfortable with the pace of the work. Her comments and questions consistently result in my finding illuminating aspects of the discussions. While I came to Laura to address grief, I get the feeling she's great with a variety of subjects and demographics."

She creates a safe environment that makes you comfortable to express whatever you need help with. She also has done a great job with filling me with tools and actually working with me to get better to where I can apply these tools outside of therapy and start to manage everything on my own. I feel as though in the past I wasn't given the correct tools for what I personally needed and Laura has worked with me to find what I specifically helps me. In all she is just great and I would recommend her to anyone."
