Frequently Asked Questions
What is Energy Medicine?
Humans are comprised of much more than just the physical, mental, and emotional bodies. We have subtle energy anatomy that links into these other bodies and includes the grounding system, the chakra system, the aura, life-force energy, plus several other energy systems. An imbalance in the energy body usually precedes any physical, mental, or emotional symptoms, and can be caused by past trauma, relationships, beliefs, and environmental factors.
​
Energy medicine is an alternative medicine that involves the assessment of energy anatomy, diagnosis of spiritual and energetic causes of physical, emotional, & mental ailments, and treatment using a myriad of healing energies.
​
I was trained in a unique modality of energy medicine, called Intuition Medicine®. It is based on many years of experience and deep study of energy anatomy by Dr. Francesca McCartney, who worked as a medical intuitive, researched the energy systems of patients, and cross-referenced her insights with the study of acupuncture, Ayurvedic medicine, homeopathy, hematology, herbalogy, nutrition, Rosicrucian and Eastern mysticism and education. Intuition Medicine® has helped people suffering from conditions that Western medicine lacked a diagnosis for, and it has fully cured many illnesses what were considered untreatable.
Please note that energy medicine is not a replacement for assessment by a licensed medical professional.
Energy medicine seeks to treat the root cause of dis-ease, on spiritual & energetic levels, and that's why I, as a nurse practitioner, find this healing practice to be so special.
How do sessions work?
​
I lead clients through a guided meditation, to get deeply grounded and relaxed. Using my intuition, I communicate with the spirit of each client to identify what healing is needed and how we can work together to facilitate it. Sessions are collaborative, meaning that clients are active participants in the healing. Throughout the session, I am checking in with the client frequently, as often times their own intuitive insights guide the healing.
​
I believe you are your own best healer. My goal is to facilitate healings that support you in remembering your power and inner wisdom, and therefore, ultimately healing yourself. I teach clients pertinent energy medicine, mindfulness, and somatic tools so that the healing continues beyond the session and integrates into their lives.
​How many sessions will it take to heal?
There's no way to say how many sessions are needed, as everyone is unique in their challenges, gifts, and needs. Personally, energy medicine has helped me heal at least 20x faster than traditional talk therapy.
Clients report improvements after the first session. I've shared some quotes below from clients post-session one:
​
"Thanks so much for the session! I feel so much lighter" - Social Worker
​
"Thank you for the healing yesterday! My heart feels more full and vibrant today... I'm so impressed by how much access to information you have. I really loved seeing you hold it with graceful confidence" - Coach & certified Internal Family Systems practitioner
​
"I had a session with Laura during a turbulent period of time in my life. In just one session, I was able to reach a meditative state that I’ve not been able to achieve despite my daily meditations and going to the SRF with guided group meditation. She was able to connect with themes in my life intuitively that I had not shared with her. I left the session feeling calm, grounded, and sure of myself - which has lasted til now (10 days after the session, when I am writing this testimonial)" - Nurse Practitioner
Do you take insurance?
Unfortunately, insurance does not currently reimburse for these services. I am committed to accessibility and offer a limited number of sliding scale slots. I'm also happy to connect you with other providers in your budget, if needed.
Healing yourself is the ultimate act of service- for ourselves, our loved ones, and our world. In healing, we alchemize our most grueling challenges into our greatest gifts and empower ourselves (and others) to shine brightly in our fullest potential.
