These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Laura Shepard. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.

Laura was so helpful to me during a time when I was learning about myself and adapting to a new environment and transitioning from a long distance relationship to living together. She is REAL! She will put you in your place when it needs to happen. There were some things that I thought were a huge issue and when I said them out loud and we talked about it she had me step back and look at the bigger picture. I appreciate her so much!

Ms. Shepard showed great compassion and understanding for us as an LGBTQI couple. She listened carefully and did not lose track of what we had said we wanted to do with our counseling time. Ms. Shepard exudes positivity and faith in our ability to change, and that has made a big difference for us during this difficult time. We both agree we'd love to work with her again.
