About
My name is Laura Prince-McGee. I’m a registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist. I’m grateful for the many ways I’ve been able to support people over the years. I spent more than a decade in the health and wellness field, coaching in fitness, nutrition, and mindset. My work as a Wellness Specialist and Massage Practitioner shaped my somatic, mind‑body approach to therapy.
I’ve supported individuals through grief and end‑of‑life transitions, helped families navigate funerals and memorials, and worked in schools alongside children and parents facing emotional and learning challenges. I have extensive experience supporting people tapering off benzodiazepines and opioids. I also work with couples, helping them find their way back to connection, understanding, and trust. I’m currently completing training in Ketamine‑Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP).
Like many, I’ve faced my own life challenges, loss, and periods of emotional struggles. While these experiences don’t define my expertise as a therapist, they have enriched my understanding of both emotional and physical suffering, allowing me to empathize on a profound level.
My passion for this work is rooted in social justice, cultural humility, and self‑reflection. I believe true support takes compassion and the courage to face systemic inequities while honoring each person’s lived experience. I aim to create spaces where healing feels personal and part of a larger movement toward equity and change.
II truly love the work I do! I hold a BA in Gerontology and an MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I live in San Francisco with my husband, our two kids, and two cats. I enjoy comedy, surfing, and Afro‑Brazilian dancing.
Changing The Way We Mourn
Tedx Golden Gate Park, 2012
How do you go from world traveler to funeral counselor the span of one phone call? In her talk, Laura Prince explores the transformative power of grief and death, and her passion for changing the way we as a society approach death.
While studying Gerontology and working with elders who were close to their death, she became inspired to celebrate life and live as passionately as possible. Later, while working on the National Geographic Expedition ships, a tragic, unexpected death in her close circle led her inadvertently into a career in the death care industry. By becoming closer to the reality of death, we can live more present, passionate lives.
