ABOUT THE COUNSELOR

Laurél Kimpton, MPS, LADC
Licensed Addiction Counselor &
Integrative Wellness Specialist
Hey there!
I'm glad you've found your way here.
​
Recovery isn't about perfection—it's about connection. And that's exactly what I'm committed to creating with every client who walks through my door (or clicks onto my website).
​
With a Masters in Addiction Counseling and a background in Integrative Health, I've dedicated my career to understanding addiction as more than just a challenge to overcome—it's a deeply personal journey of healing and self-discovery. My graduate training in Integrative Therapies and Healing Practices means I don't just see symptoms; I see you—a whole, complex human being with incredible potential for transformation.
My approach is simple but powerful: lead with compassion, always. Together, we'll do some real work. We'll dig deep to uncover your core values, shine a light on the pain points that have held you back, and strategically build healthy boundaries that support your recovery. This isn't about me fixing you—it's about empowering you to create the life you truly want.
Recovery is a courageous path, and you don't have to walk it alone. Whether you're just starting to consider change or you're deep in your healing journey, I'm here—without judgment, with total respect, and full of hope for what's possible.
Ready to start something different? Let's talk.
