Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Lauren, MA, LMFT. I bring experience from psychiatric and private practice settings and strive to create a space where you feel heard and supported. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues, as well as challenges like bipolar disorder, codependency, grief, family conflict, divorce, stress, sleep difficulties, and self-esteem.

My approach to therapy

My approach is collaborative and tailored to you. We’ll work together to build coping skills, process your experiences, and better understand patterns that may be keeping you stuck. I often incorporate solution-focused strategies while also creating space for reflection, helping you create meaningful, lasting change.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is all about getting to know you and making sure you feel comfortable working together. We’ll talk through what brought you in, what you’re hoping for, and begin setting goals that feel meaningful to you. This is a space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors so you can better understand yourself and your patterns.
