Laura Anderson LPCC, Eff Shame Therapy
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC
I started Eff Shame Therapy because I believe shame is at the root of most of what brings people to therapy — and because I think it deserves to be named directly rather than tiptoed around. We are living in a world that generates shame faster than most of us can process it, and many of us are carrying wounds from abuse, trauma, and systemic harm that have never had a real place to land and heal.
I work with adults who are ready to stop managing their pain and start actually moving through it. My approach is trauma-informed, shame-free, and genuinely collaborative — I bring some of the most effective healing tools available including EMDR, Flash Technique, and ketamine-assisted EMDR, and I meet you exactly where you are.
This work matters to me. Not as a concept but in the room, session by session, with real people who deserve more than survival.

17 Years Experience
Online in Oxnard, CA (Online Only)
Oxnard is Ventura County's largest city and a predominantly Hispanic agricultural and industrial center — the county is one of California's most productive strawberry, lemon, and vegetable growing regions — with a therapy community deeply shaped by the experiences of farmworker families navigating immigration stress, seasonal income volatility, and limited English-language access to mainstream mental health services. The city's proximity to Naval Base Ventura County creates additional demand for military-oriented therapists alongside the largely Latino civilian therapy market. St. John's Regional Medical Center provides institutional mental health resources for the area, while the therapy community overall remains relatively sparse relative to the city's population. Bilingual Spanish-English therapists perform essential access work in a city where language barriers significantly limit engagement with standard English-language mental health care.
