Dr. Lasby also talks about the upcoming expansion of her practice to include neurofeedback treatments.   Dr. Carmen D. Lasby is a licensed psychologist in Washington state. Her therapy focuses on helping adults heal from childhood trauma, learning new ways to think and live in the world, and identifying a better understanding of oneself and the relationships with those around them. She enjoys working with adults who have persevered in life and who have the courage to want something better for themselves. She is a trauma-informed psychologist with an attachment and relational focus. She specializes in complex trauma, PTSD, dissociative disorders, anxiety, and depression. To work with Dr. Lasby, you can contact her on her website at www.drcarmendlasby.com   I'm Dr. Heather Taylor, a licensed psychologist in Washington state. I've been practicing grief therapy since 2012 and am passionate about changing the narrative of grief in our current cultural climate. Grief is a universal lived experience and as such needs to be something we talk about without the taboo attached. I hope you'll join me as we work to adjust to the new normal we are living in and support one another in that process.   Dr. Taylor is also a co-founder of 'The Mourning Movement,' with Jen Reisinger, LMHC. The Mourning Movement aims to create spaces for grief education and community support to reduce isolation and stigma around grief. We have an upcoming "In this together" summer grief challenge kicking off on June 10th, 2024.
