Welcome! I’m glad you’re here. I’m Lauren, I provide healing support for individuals dealing with trauma/PTSD, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions, grief & loss, and more. I am trained and experienced in using EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS)/parts work, and Somatic Experiencing to help clients heal from many different forms of trauma and wounding.
I strive to lead with curiosity, compassion and openness, guiding and supporting you through the terrain of your own unique path in a way that honors all parts of you. I have a deep respect for the courage it takes to heal and grow. My approach is warm and nonjudgmental. I consider myself a guide and a companion, helping you get to know and understand yourself in ways you may have never known.
In sessions I tend to find balance between being directive when needed, and also holding a regulated container to flow with where you are in the moment and providing space for your experience to unfold. I don’t see people as broken. I see that often folks have been through a lot and they haven’t had enough and/or the right support to process and resolve experiences. I strive to teach and support people to digest and metabolize emotions, and understand their wisdom and inherent value.
