“At the center of my practice is the belief that the search for joy is lifelong. My goal is to shepherd you on this path towards happiness and inner peace.”
Welcome to My Practice
I am Laura Tsang, your License Marriage and Family Therapist and relationship coach in Seattle since 2003. As a Systems Therapist, I have helped hundreds of couples, families, and individuals rekindle the joy and connection they once had in their life. My work allows clients to experience unique moments of calmness and serenity.
My Core Beliefs
We are all born with a healthy true self. Our emotional awareness is a tool which protects us from danger and allows us to make wise decisions in day to day life. Our instinct is sensitive and accurate until we learn to conform with the world due to fear, abandonment and rejection. We have learned to ignore, block, or shut down our emotions through different life events in order to avoid pain and survive. The connection between our head and heart becomes dull, confused or even lost in the process. Sadly, over time, our ability to hear or trust our inner voice and instinct has declined. It negatively affects our confidence and self-worth as a result. Anxiety and self-doubt become a normal part of your life.
My Passion
My deepest passion is helping you to restore your authentic self and have your healthy true self back online. Your healthy true self is like a GPS in you which navigates you through life safely and securely. What matters the most is for you to listen, respect and respond to your true self in order to build your confidence from inside out.
My Mission
My work provides you insight in your unique situation. Improving your emotional awareness and understanding the meaning behind your emotions would bring you clarity in your circumstances. Practical tools and strategies that tailor to your needs are provided in the process. The goal is to bring emotional clarity and recenter you back in your day to day life. After working with me, the tools you learn are yours forever - I offer the expertise to sharpen these tools and to tailor them to your needs. Restoring your Healthy True Self through recentering yourself and bringing calmness and peacefulness back into your life in this uncertain world is the mission of my work for each of my clients.

Therapy
The purpose of counseling is for clients who want to understand and heal from their past trauma. Feeling and living lively through restoring and reconnecting to their healthy true self is the ultimate goal.

Individual Therapy
Individual therapy is a therapeutic process designed to support clients in understanding, processing, and healing from past trauma. The focus is on creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their emotions, thoughts, and experiences. Through this process, clients work to identify and reconnect with their healthy, authentic self—the part of them that may have been buried or disconnected due to trauma. Therapists use evidence-based techniques to help clients process painful memories, develop coping strategies, and build resilience. The ultimate goal is to empower clients to live more fully, authentically, and vibrantly, free from the weight of their past.
Couples Therapy
Couples therapy is designed to help partners understand and heal from relational wounds, past traumas, or patterns that may be affecting their connection. The therapy process focuses on fostering open communication, empathy, and mutual understanding. By addressing individual and shared experiences, couples can work toward restoring trust, intimacy, and emotional safety in their relationship. The therapist guides the couple in reconnecting with their authentic selves and each other, helping them build a healthier, more fulfilling partnership. The goal is to create a relationship where both individuals feel seen, heard, and valued, allowing them to thrive together.

“Laura has been my counselor for nearly two years. When I first met with her it was during the height of covid lockdown and my wife and I needed someone to help us resolve our relationship conflicts. Laura was able to effectively navigate through our petty disputes to find the root cause of our issues and help us grow as a couple. Since then I’ve continued to work with Laura on personal development and with her guidance have improved my confidence and peace of mind. I’ve worked with two other professional counselors in the past and Laura is hands down the best person I have worked with. She’s relatable, patient, nurturing, and intelligent. I highly recommend Laura for any personal development or couples counseling needs you might have.“ - PS
“Laura has been a critical part of my mental health journey. I was not in a good place when I first met Laura. I was diagnosed with moderate depression and anxiety. Not only was this my diagnosis, the thought of seeing a mental health therapist was new to me. After meeting her for the first time, I could tell that she is a therapist that cares and gets genuine satisfaction out of helping her patients. One of the most important things to find in a therapist is finding someone who will listen to you and can relate to what you may be going through. I felt that Laura was the right fit for me. She has equipped me with many tools and strategies to handle the stressors that come my way. I am happy to say that I am in a much better place in life, thanks to Laura! “ - CL
“We’ve been married for 15 years and had gradually slipped into unhealthy habits that were causing us to draw away from one another and get stuck in a cycle of non-communication and feelings of unfulfillment. We experienced a tumultuous and distressing time after these feelings of unrest had created a situation where comfort was sought outside of our marriage, which rocked our foundation and sent us spiraling into a state of distrust and discord. Even so, we loved each other enough to commit to seeing Laura and we agreed to genuinely listen and apply ideas she suggested. She helped us to uncover individual emotional trigger areas we hadn’t considered and helped us identify not only methods to recognize our true feelings and their cause but language to express them to one another. Our sessions with Laura provided a safe and structured environment where we could practice this new way of intentional communication, and Laura gently guided us to a place where we are able to interact in this healthy and truthful way in our home on our own. After working with Laura for a little over a year, the loving energy in our household has returned and we have gained the tools to recognize if and when we might need extra support once again. We are truly grateful to Laura, whose words, pacing and grace with us as individuals and as a couple were exactly what we needed in order to save a marriage worthy of saving.” - KD & CD
“I have been a client of Laura for I believe just over a year. At first I felt I didn’t need anyone’s help and could do it on my own. However, after a bad situation it was finally time to seek out help. I have been suffering from severe PTSD for many many years. I still suffer to this day, but with help from Laura it is not as severe as it was before. It’s taking baby steps which is the goal. I didn’t know if saw the results on my own but after speaking of what I have been doing since I started this journey there have been baby steps in the right direction which is what I wanted. It is going to be a long battle, but I’m glad that Laura is helping me with this battle as well as my family. You cannot win a battle on your own. If you are needing help please seek out Laura because she has been of great help thus far. I will continue to seek help from her now and the future. Thank you so much for the help thus far and continue to do so. Thank You.” - JW
“Laura has provided me with the tools to understand what is holding me back in life. What I discovered with her counseling was that I needed to be honest with myself about the cause of why I feel up or down. Only with this honesty I can move forward in life. Her sessions are about discovering this honesty and at times it can be scary facing the truth, at the end often times I come out feeling happier and lighter.” - HR
“Working with Laura has been very helpful. She always listens to what I say and never judges me. I appreciate the conversations we have; it gives me insight into my habits and past self. Thank you Laura! “- LL
“Laura has been and continues to be an amazing therapist. When I first saw her two years ago I was experiencing really bad anxiety almost everyday and didn’t know anything about it. I just wanted my anxiety and overthinking to stop. With a lot of support and guidance from Laura, I was able to overcome these fears and even opened up about childhood trauma and triggers. I am thankful for her contribution to my journey and highly recommend her expertise!” – KL
