I know what it’s like to have all the self-awareness but still feel stuck.

I’m Laura, the founder of Inner Empower. I help self-aware high-achievers understand and change the subconscious patterns and nervous-system responses that keep showing up in their relationships, careers, boundaries and choices.

My path into this work began on Wall Street, where I spent more than a decade as a Managing Director, and continued through my studies in the Master’s in Clinical Psychology program at Pepperdine. After 20 years of therapy and Al-Anon, I understood my patterns, but my subconscious was still running the show and my body was still reacting from old wounds. That gap led me to focus on both the subconscious and the nervous system.

Today, I use a structured approach to help people address those patterns at the root and build a more secure way of relating to themselves and others.

ABOUT INNER EMPOWER

Beyond Awareness: Changing the Patterns That Keep You Stuck

Inner Empower grew from the gap I experienced firsthand: I could understand my patterns and still repeat them.

The patterns shaping our lives don’t live in the conscious mind alone. They can remain active in the subconscious and in the nervous system, influencing how we respond to relationships, opportunities, boundaries, and stress.

That is why the Inner Empower Method works with both. We uncover the original pattern, help the body feel safer in the present, and practice new ways of responding until self-trust becomes something you can live from.

I created the Inner Empower Method to provide the 3-phase rewire I couldn't find in traditional systems: 

  • Inner Child Healing: the subconscious patterns and unmet developmental needs underneath your triggers.

  • Nervous System Rewiring: helping your body move out of habitual fight, flight, freeze or fawn responses.

  • Empowered Alignment: practicing secure communication, clear boundaries and a stronger connection to your own voice.

We don't just talk about your story. We change the way your body lives it.

Meet the Founder

Laura | Founder and Architect of the Inner Empower Method

Laura's work is rooted in lived experience. Growing up around addiction, and discovering at 18 that the father who raised her was not her biological father, left her carrying a deep wound around abandonment and feeling unwanted. Those patterns followed her into adulthood as people-pleasing, self-abandonment, and a struggle to feel secure in relationships.

She went on to spend more than a decade as a Managing Director on Wall Street, proving that outward success can exist alongside patterns that still quietly run the show. Her own search for healing has spanned nearly 30 years and five countries.

In 2020, Laura founded Say Their Names LA, an organization centered on families whose loved ones had been killed by police in Los Angeles. Supporting families through profound grief made her recognize the limits of the tools she had, leading her to pursue studies in the Master's in Clinical Psychology program at Pepperdine.

The father who raised Laura was an America's Cup yacht designer, and his influence shaped the way she approaches healing: with compassion, precision, and an understanding of how each part affects the whole. She created the Inner Empower Method as a structured, science-informed approach bringing together subconscious pattern work, nervous-system education, and practical tools for self-trust, boundaries, and secure communication..

Ready to Stop Understanding the Pattern and Start Changing It?

You may already know where your patterns come from. You’ve read the books, done the therapy, and become highly aware of what happens when you’re triggered. But insight alone doesn’t always change the response your body learned years ago.

The Inner Empower Method works at the subconscious, nervous-system, and behavioral levels to help you change the patterns that keep showing up in your relationships, communication, confidence, and decisions.

Apply for a 60-Minute Breakthrough Audit. Together, we’ll identify the patterns keeping you stuck, where they began, and what your path forward could look like.

Inner Empower is intentionally kept small so each client receives personal support throughout the process.
