Laurel A. Fay

As a marriage and family therapist who has been in private practice for over 25 years, I have had the honor of working with amazing and brave clients - some of whom are re-entering therapy after less-than-positive past therapy experiences. Whether you've been in therapy before or never had a single session, my goal is to foster a warm and safe environment just for you.
