Lauren Caccamo

My name is Lauren Caccamo and I so am happy you are here!

I am trained as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and received my Master's in Social Work with a concentration in Clinical Social Work at the University of Chicago. I interned at Northwestern Medicine's outpatient mental health clinic where I learned many of the treatment approaches I still use today. Those treatment approaches include behavioral therapies like ACT, DBT, CBT, trauma informed therapies, art therapy, and EMDR.

Balance is key.

As psychotherapist who has been practicing for over seven years and a trained yoga instructor, I have found balance is essential in all parts of our lives. I strive to find a balance of creating a warm and supportive therapy environment while also working to push and challenge clients to make the changes they want to see and grow in the ways they want to grow.

Clients will walk a way with a better understanding of themselves which in turn will help them achieve their goals. In therapy understanding the self, including understanding your past self, your present self, and what you want for your future self, will inform how we work to achieve your goals.. Being able to understand those different parts of you and your experiences can help clients heal and clear a path to their desired results and life.
