Laura Cyran, PsyD

My clients describe me as:

An authentic, curious, flexible, and accepting therapist who is doing my best to navigate this messy world just like you!

Something to know about my approach is:

While many CBT therapists emphasize the cognitive ("C") part of CBT, I place a stronger emphasis on active behavioral ("B") strategies. In order to change how we are feeling and functioning day to day, we need to change what we are doing.

Together, we will:

Find creative ways to face your fears, test your beliefs and assumptions, learn new skills, replace unhelpful habits, and move forward toward your goals and values.

I specialize in working with people who:

I specialize in working with teens and adults with generalized anxiety, social anxiety, perfectionism, obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic attacks, procrastination, and high-pressure academic or occupational environments.

I became a therapist because:

I have a deep and ongoing curiosity about human behavior and desire to understand why we act, feel, and think the way we do.

Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:

I currently offer telehealth sessions on Zoom. This allows clients the flexibility to access therapy in their own comfy home, without the commute.

More about me and my practice:

My goal would be for you to create a rich and meaningful life by developing psychological and behavioral skills to effectively reduce the impact of difficult thoughts and feelings and focus your attention on what is important and meaningful to you.
