Dr. Laura Bio: I am passionate about helping my clients obtain quality and effective care in a warm, trusting, and collaborative environment. My private practice, Compass Psychological Services fills several gaps that I see in psychological care in the Tampa area: boutique care for professionals and distance counseling for college students around Florida that require a higher level of care than their college counseling center can offer.
