About

Laurie Berson, LCSW

This work is my passion, and I consider it my most meaningful contribution toward making this world a better place. As a Master NARM® Psychotherapist in Central Austin, TX, I companion others on their journey into a deeper, more intimate relationship with themselves. I believe that deepening your understanding and connection with yourself is the foundation for greater connection and intimacy with others. Connection, healthy relationships, and community support a more vibrant and fulfilling life experience. What could be more valuable than that?

My approach to C-PTSD

I approach every client with a heartfelt appreciation for the infinite potential in every human. I use the NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM®) to help you access your potential, especially when it feels blocked by past experiences. I honor your complexities—your symptoms and defenses—not as problems to be fixed, but as venerable truths that represent the ingenious wisdom it took to survive in a difficult world.

If you are seeking a NARM therapist specializing in developmental and complex trauma in the Central Austin area, I offer a focused and compassionate space for healing. I hold the possibility for powerful change within the relational structure and skills I continuously cultivate through NARM® mentorship and trainings with the Complex Trauma Training Center.

My practice involves supporting your connection with self and gently navigating difficult internal terrain. From there, your own deep understanding and impulses toward healing can authentically unfold. I practice being present with what emerges and reinforce what I know to be helpful, guiding you toward a more fulfilling and integrated experience of yourself.
