Laura Evans

I’m a Marriage and Family Therapist based in Austin, Texas with a passion for helping others thrive in their lives and their relationships. I have a Master of Arts in Counseling from St. Edward's University and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Texas at Austin. I've taken Fluence's training to help clients prepare for and integrate ketamine treatment. I've been interested in helping people utilize psychedelics for growth and change since early in my college career. In my free time, I enjoy hiking and kayaking, eating good food, and spending quality time with those I care about.

My training foundation as a marriage and family therapist centered on family systems therapies, which help me understand complex challenges from a relational and holistic perspective. This foundation also taught me how to be a collaborative therapist - one who believes that clients are the experts on themselves and have inner healing wisdom that we discover together. I have built on that foundation by utilizing theories such as interpersonal neurobiology, attachment theory, acceptance and commitment therapy, and others that help clients understand the mind-body connection.
