As the leader of Laurie Singer Behavioral Services in Camarillo, California, Laurie has dedicated her life to helping individuals manage and overcome behavioral and mental health challenges. Motivated by personal loss, she has developed a unique therapeutic approach that combines behavioral and cognitive behavioral therapies to guide her clients toward healing and resilience.
Laurie’s personal story of perseverance extends beyond her professional life. She’s a seasoned endurance athlete, having completed 28 ultra-marathons, three Ironman competitions, and a 3,000-mile cross-country bike ride. In this episode, Laurie shares the mindset that has fueled her remarkable athletic achievements, including her latest triumph: reaching the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro in 2024. Her determination to push physical limits mirrors the mental strength she encourages in her clients.

This fundraiser supports the Child Life Program at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, bringing comfort and care to young patients and their families. Laurie also touches on her book, You’re Not Crazy: Living with Anxiety, Obsessions, and Fetishes, which offers practical strategies for mental well-being.
