Laurie M. Ables, MA, LPC-S, NBCC, BCPCC

Licensed Professional Counselor & Supervisor with 28 years of experience. The majority of my private practice is dedicated to marriage, individual, and adolescent counseling as well as parental coaching. My method of counseling comes from a foundation of integrating faith and psychological tools to aid in the restoration of the total person - intellectually​, emotionally, spiritually, and physically. I also utilize animal-assisted therapy a few times a month by bringing my therapy dog to the office. I truly enjoy mentoring the next generation of counselors and at this time have an additional satellite office based in Stonebridge Church. Thankfully, I am happily married and have 3 wonderful young adult children. My spare time is spent enjoying life as much as possible by spending time adventuring with my family. My motto is "Encouragement for today, Hope for tomorrow."
