Hi! I am Laura Kien and I am happy you have found my page.  I love being able to join others on their journey of self-discovery and healing to assist in uncover the best version of themselves. 

I am the co-owner and co-founder of Introspective Integrated Therapy, LLC in Mason, Michigan where I am proud to say, we have cultivated a warm and safe space to invite individuals, couples, and families to sit with us and see if we can find tools to help you better navigate this incredibly complex world we live in, or solutions to things that you feel may be holding you back from whatever it is i your life you wish to achieve.  

I am a former Navy Hospital Corpsman, who then worked in the Department of Veterans Affairs and can offer veterans and military families care that doesn’t require them translating life to civilian language.  This also affords me a broad medical understanding which is helpful to those who struggle with physical issues that impact mental health overall.    

A recent graduate from Michigan State University, I am a Limited License Masters of Social Work.  My clinical intern experience focused on complex trauma, domestic violence, sexual trauma, and substance abuse with co-occurring disorders.   Prior to completing my master’s degree, I obtained a bachelor’s degree in sociology with a youth emphasis and have 5 years of experience in substance abuse that extends from creating and implementing state level policies, to clinical work in residential and outpatient substance abuse treatment.   

I enjoy working with teenagers and adults and I firmly believe each person has the answers they need within them. My role in your journey is to co-pilot and help you remove barriers.  My approach is systemic, collaborative, and strengths-based.  I am mindful of structural challenges my clients may face culturally, economically, and ethnically.  I am eclectic in my approach utilizing some cognitive behavioral and psychodynamic techniques as well as some gestalt depending on the need of the client.  

I look forward to hearing from you if you think I may be able to help you.  Currently I am accepting new clients and am able to accept all forms of Medicaid, Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Cigna, McLaren, Priority Health, and Aetna. I am also able to take private pay clients who may choose not to bill insurance or maybe don't have insurance. I offer a sliding scale for payment based on your income.

I take an integrative approach and aim to build a collaborative and trusting relationship in order to serve the unique goals of each individual, couple and family I see. As an individual you should feel heard and understood so that you may live a more confident, fulfilling and authentic life that is true to you as you inherently have the answers you are seeking with some support to identify and overcome barriers. I assist individuals in reaching new levels of safety, intimacy, self-exploration and provide trauma-informed treatment and LGBTQ+ affirmative care. Specific areas of interest include mood disorders, personality disorders, coping skills, addiction, self-harm, grief, sexual abuse, trauma and PTSD, domestic violence, life transitions, gender issues, sexual orientation and peer relationships.  

My treatment includes a variety of interventions and theoretical approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, emotionally-focused therapy and attachment-based, somatic, strengths-based and culturally sensitive interventions. It is possible to find fulfillment and authenticity for yourself or within your most meaningful relationships. My focus includes adolescents and adults. My most recent education includes a master’s degree in Social Work from Rutgers University. My goal is to help you thrive, not just survive.

When not at work, I can be found exploring the outdoors, journaling in a coffee shop, shopping for new plants or experimenting with new artistic mediums. If you believe I could be helpful to you or a loved one, please call me at Introspective Integrated Therapy, LLC to schedule an appointment or email at rebecca@jacksoncounseling.org. I am in-network with Aetna, Blue Care Network, BlueCross/BlueShield, Blue Cross Complete, Humana, Ingham Health Plan, McLaren Medicaid, Meridian Health Plan, Optum, Priority Health and Medicare. I will also accept self-pay on an individual basis and am able to bill out of network benefits.
