Laura Stearns
Welcome! My coaching approach is rooted in the principles from my book Daring to Heal: Growing Beyond Trauma Through Awareness, Acceptance, and Action. Using an intuitive, personalized framework, I help you uncover and release the blocks holding you back. Through the tools of Identifying False Core Beliefs and RITE Thinking, you’ll learn to recognize your strengths, reframe limiting patterns, and chart a clear path toward growth and healing. Together, we’ll embark on a transformative journey toward a more authentic, empowered life.
ART
Survivors of trauma often turn to art—sometimes without even realizing it—as a way to heal. Our instinct to create is deeply human, and it can be a powerful force for recovery. As an artist myself, I know firsthand the transformative power of artistic expression. Together, we’ll explore how your art supports your inner healing and uncover what might be blocking you from fully embracing your creative self.
LIFE
Everyone has a story. Our past shapes us—sometimes giving us strength, other times holding us back from our true potential. Through the Identifying False Core Beliefs and RITE Thinking processes, I’ll help you discover what’s serving you and what’s standing in your way. My goal is to equip you with the insight, confidence, and tools to move forward with clarity and self-trust.
TRAUMA
Trauma touches all of us—sometimes in subtle ways, other times in ways that can feel overwhelming. My own journey as a victim-survivor, combined with my training as a rape crisis advocate and the in-depth research behind my books, has given me deep insight into the impact of trauma and approaches to address it. While I am not a therapist, the work we do together is designed to complement professional trauma therapy, helping to strengthen and support the healing you’re already undertaking with a qualified clinician.
BOOK CLUB
Thinking about reading Daring to Heal with friends? The Identifying False Core Beliefs and RITE Thinking processes are even more powerful when shared with others who understand the journey. Working in a small, trusted group creates a safe space to process, reflect, and support each other’s healing. I can join your group to help you get started, introduce the core practices, and guide you through the basics of this transformative work. Contact me to learn more.
