Lauren Burt

My goal is to work with you, empower you, and be an active listener when everything feels against you. I use a client-centered approach because I want you to feel validated in your unique circumstances and hardships, and to help you create and identify your specific goals. My home roots are in Southern California, and I attended California Polytechnic University, Pomona for my Master of Science in Psychology. After finishing my educational training, I have had the opportunity to practice as a therapist in schools, treatment centers, and private practice.

My primary therapeutic approaches involve cognitive-behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, and motivational interviewing, my highest goal is always to the individual. I use a client-centered therapy approach because I want my clients to feel validated in their unique hardships and to help clients identify goals specific to their circumstances. I have found that creating a safe and supportive environment in which clients get to be themselves fosters a meaningful client-therapist relationship and lays the foundation of successful treatment.

In our first session, my priority will be to get to know you and understand what brings you to therapy. We will discuss your background, current challenges, and hopes for our work together. This will help lay the foundation for a supportive therapeutic relationship as we begin the journey towards positive change and growth.
