Laura Testiler, PsyD, PMH-C

Is motherhood turning out to be a lot harder than you expected? Are you feeling ashamed for even feeling that way? You’re not alone. As a mom of three, I know firsthand how amazing—and overwhelming—motherhood can be. I also understand how hard it is to care for yourself when you’re so busy taking care of everyone else.

As a licensed clinical psychologist (PsyD) and certified perinatal mental health professional (PMH-C), I support adults navigating anxiety, depression, and relationship issues during pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenthood. I provide online therapy with a warm, collaborative approach designed to help you feel supported—not judged.

My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based tools to help you manage emotional overwhelm and better understand patterns keeping you stuck. I also explore relationship dynamics to help you strengthen boundaries, communicate clearly, and increase connection and fulfillment in relationships.

I am especially passionate about supporting women through the transition to motherhood. After experiencing postpartum depression and anxiety myself, I felt deeply called to help others navigate this vulnerable season of life. That experience led me to pursue advanced training through Postpartum Support International and earn certification in perinatal mental health (PMH-C).

Although I’m based in Miami, Florida, I’m able to provide virtual therapy in 40+ states through PSYPACT.

I know that finding the right therapist can sometimes feel overwhelming, but just being here is a great first step. If you’d like to learn more about me and my approach, please take a moment to check out my website. You can also call or email me to schedule a free 20-minute consultation—I’d love to see if we’re a good fit. I look forward to hearing from you!
