Dr. Laura Quiros, LMSW

Laura’s clinical work has focused on trauma-informed practice and inclusion. She works to find spaces to advance inclusion, belonging and accountability within diverse sectors to help connect individuals and teams to missions and agendas of diversity, equity and inclusion–and ultimately belonging. Her work is grounded in her lived experiences as a woman of color from a multi-cultural background and trauma-informed clinical training. Her film and television consulting helps creative teams support and navigate manifestations of trauma that subjects may experience in filming to ensure the process provides healing as needed. She also works with film teams to analyze and unpack privilege and power dynamics between filmmakers and subjects and coaches cast and crew from pre-production and beyond on trauma-informed filming from a social justice lens. She is a Professor of Social Work at Montclair State University. www.lauraqc.com
