Welcome to Trauma Healing for all! My name is Laura Paton (she/her/hers) and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and EMDR certified therapist who provides therapy services through telehealth and in person to Washington State and Oregon State adult residents. I identify as a secular/non religious therapist. I offer in person appointments at my office in Capitol Hill, Seattle. 

I specialize in using EMDR to treat the following:
Anxiety
(c)PTSD
Childhood trauma and abuse (emotional, physical and sexual)
Chronic Pain
Depression
Grief and loss
​Phobias
Pregnancy loss/abortion
Religious trauma
Single incident trauma


My EMDR approach is designed to work either supplementary​, while you are seeing a talk therapist and feel "stuck", or independently as a focused service.
Please feel free to browse the pages of my website for more info on my clinical approach and free information on healing trauma.


I accept (am in network) with the following insurances: Aetna, Cigna, Premera, Regence, United Healthcare and Kaiser PPO (WA residents only for Kaiser) . I can also provide a superbill (receipt) for insurance reimbursement.
