Paul Ezelle
My husband Chris is a former firefighter paramedic and struggled with PTSD issues for most of his life. This affected many aspects of his life and relationships. He met Paul in a "Dinosaurs of EMS" chat room. Chris had made a declaration for help and Paul is the one who responded. Paul has been Chris' mentor for several years now and has helped him tremendously in working through past trauma. I can vouch for Paul and his genuine love for people and his gentle but honest approach to difficult situations. Vashti

Laurie Jackson
Laurie and I have been friends for over 25 years. Together we overcame many of our own obstacles and limitations inadvertently passed down to us, as well as our own false beliefs.
Laurie is a TRUE overcomer. She put in the work and stayed the course in her own life to be a healed and whole wife, mother, friend, daughter and so much more. Her formal education is the bow on top. The only downside is her availability is for Alaska only. If you ae an Alaskan resident, you are in the right place for Laurie's services.
Vashti
M.S. LPC
LICENSED COUNSELOR- ALASKA ONLY
Laurie is a licensed counselor serving in Alaska. She is offers free-screening to assist you in finding the best fit for your needs.
Laurie's enthusiasm and genuine love for people helps to dispel fear, which often accompanies the vulnerability and accountability required for effective therapy.
"Often times we may put off going to see a therapist for fear of being judged, feeling vulnerable, or maybe we have some irrational fears that we are not yet aware of. Whatever fears we do not choose to face will become our limits. We can work together to find healthy ways to cope with anxiety, depression, relationships, and or trauma related issues. I provide a non-judgemental and compassionate atmosphere" Laurie Jackson
