Hear From Those We Support
"As a Pasifika woman to another... My experience with Laura as my clinical supervisor has been the most incredible, powerful, and rewarding journey that has shaped my personal growth, academic achievements and professional development.
She possesses a unique ability to create a safe and supportive space that encourages critical thinking, self reflection and the opportunity for progressive learning.
Her deep insight and understanding of Pacific culture and our responsibilities as women, combined with her constructive feedback, were among the valuable highlights of our sessions"
