Back In Balance Acupuncture & Psychotherapy Center
My mission is to help people experience lifelong wellness by treating the underlying cause of illness through acupuncture. With psychotherapy I can facilitate empowering people towards healthier coping and relationships. By providing clear communication, education, and holistic practices I hope to engage everyone who walks through my door to make informed choices which benefits their health in the long run.

My practice will be a safe and compassionate environment without judgment where each individual's needs and concerns will be heard and addressed. Would you like a holistic or alternative approach to treating health issues without prescription medication? Are the prescription medications you are taking not completely alleviating your symptoms or causing side effects?

I have been in the mental health field for 30 years. My areas of training and expertise in therapy include eating disorders, various anxiety and depressive disorders, and people in recovery from alcohol and drugs. I have worked with people with a variety of problems and diagnoses not listed. I have authored publications on Compulsive Eating and Body Image Issues in Older women.
I cannot believe that I am no longer in pain. The only thing that changed was that I dropped 10 pounds, started walking and exercising and I did acupuncture with you. I don't even think about my shoulders and back anymore after 10+ years. NEVER in a million years would I have ever thought that Acupuncture would of worked before this.
Do you ever feel too overwhelmed to deal with your problems? If so, you're not alone. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, more than a quarter of American adults each year experience depression, anxiety or another psychological condition. There are many misconceptions about psychotherapy and you may be reluctant to try it out.
Most styles of acupuncture involve the insertion of very fine needles into specific acupuncture points located around the body or on the ear. There are many different lengths and gauges of needles used. They are all sterilized, disposable, one-time-use needles. These are standard procedures designed to maximize the cleanliness and hygiene of the acupuncture treatment.

I suffered from debilitating migraines daily for years. I was on medication which never brought relief. I would miss out on work and life due to them. Over the last year and a half I’ve had a handful and none were bad enough to make me leave work or sit in the dark. The acupuncture Laurie offers has allowed me to get my life back through relieving my migraines. She has also helped with numerous other issues that pop up on day to day life like tight muscles or back pain. I feel better than when I was 20 as I’m getting not approaching 40 and it’s all because of Laurie!

I went to see Laurie when my right foot swelled and my doctor didn't seem to know why. I went through the standard x-rays, and the doctor concluded that I needed new orthotics for my flat feet. That didn't make sense to me, so that's when I consulted with Laurie. I don't understand Chinese medicine, but it certainly worked for me. After the first visit, the swelling was gone in my foot. I continued to seek treatment with Laurie for other issues that I'd been having with my back, and again, with continued treatment my back pain has resolved.
