Dr. Laura Fernandez, FL Psychologist PY9982

Dr. Laura Fernandez is a licensed psychologist (FL Psychologist PY9982) and the founder of Mindful Freedom, bringing a thoughtful, evidence-based approach to helping people navigate trauma, relationship difficulties, and mood concerns. With extensive clinical experience, she specializes in treating narcissistic abuse, borderline personality disorder, post-traumatic stress, anxiety, and depression, and she draws on proven therapeutic methods to support recovery and stronger self-regulation.

Her typical clients are individuals who have endured traumatic events, struggle with low self-esteem or boundary setting, find it hard to maintain healthy relationships, or need guidance asserting themselves and making important life decisions. Dr. Fernandez also works with concerns related to intimacy, parenting, grief, caregiving stress, and a range of mood and neurodiverse conditions where tailored strategies are helpful.

Dr. Fernandez describes her practice as LGBT-affirming and reports extensive experience working with minority communities, noting her own minority background as part of that perspective. She emphasizes collaborative treatment planning and the use of evidence-based interventions to address patterns of emotional pain, communication difficulties, and coping challenges.

At Mindful Freedom, the emphasis is on practical skills, clearer boundaries, and restoring a sense of agency after difficult experiences. She is not currently accepting new clients.
