Hi, I'm Laura Prikosovich!

I am a Registered Social Worker and Psychotherapist and a registered member with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers (OCSWSSW).

​

I hold a Master of Social Work with a specialization in Health from The University of Waterloo (2024), a BSW with a Minor in Psychology from Toronto Metropolitan University (2019), and a Graduate Certificate in Addictions and Mental Health from Humber College (2020).

​

Over the past seven years, I’ve supported individuals through trauma-informed counselling across a range of settings both in clinical practicums and employment - including the development and implementation of mental health programming for children and youth in community health centres, facilitating recovery groups in a hospital-based medical withdrawal management unit, providing individual and group therapy in an outpatient hospital setting, supporting women through one-on-one counselling in a housing-focused non-profit, and working in a three-week residential treatment program for substance use.

​

Therapy, for me, is relational - it’s not about fixing, but about gently exploring what it means to live with more connection, curiosity, and compassion. I bring lived experience to this work, and I know how vulnerable and brave it is to reach out for support. I believe healing is possible when we’re met where we are, without judgment.

 

Fun Facts:

When I’m not in session, you can find me climbing rocks, watching trashy reality TV, singing musical numbers, or hanging out with my family dog Whiskey. I’m someone who believes in laughing, swearing (a little), and holding space for the full, messy, beautiful human experience.
