Name: Laura Franklin

- Location: New Zealand
Modality Description
My name is Laura Franklin and I am a registered Clinical Psychologist in Auckland (New Zealand) providing therapy to individuals over the age of 18. I am a full member of the New Zealand Psychological Society (NZPsS) and the EMDR Association of Australia (EMDRAA).
I have trained in various effective, evidence-based models, and over the years have gravitated towards using EMDR/Flash and Ego State therapy (parts work) as my main, preferred treatment modalities. In addition, due to my own experience with a daily meditation practice these past years, I have come to feel passionate about integrating therapy with meditation and wider spiritual practices.
Bio Information
As my personal meditation practice is based on the work of Dr. Joe Dispenza, I have joined the Healthcare Practitioner program run by Inner Health Coalition to see how I can best support my clients to find their way in this work too. In addition, I have partnered with the School of Modern Meditation in Auckland as they offer a beautiful range of online and in-person classes in all meditation styles, breathwork, yoga, sound healing and Qigong.
Although I currently live in New Zealand, I am originally from an English family who lived in the Netherlands. During my twenties, I spent many years in Costa Rica, Mexico, Honduras and Bolivia, working as a divemaster, dolphin trainer and psychologist. I am fluent in English and Dutch, and I can probably reboot my Spanish, if needed! As my Psychologist registration is with the Board of Psychology in New Zealand, I can currently only provide therapy to people who are based in New Zealand.
