I’m Lauren, a psychiatric nurse practitioner who works with adults navigating anxiety, depression, and other mental health challenges. I’m here to support you when motivation ghosts you, you’re running on empty, or life simply feels harder than it should. If your thoughts run full marathons at 2 a.m., your to-do list lives rent free in your head, or you’ve ever Googled “Why do I need a nap after making one phone call?”, you’re in the right place.
Expect care that’s competent, compassionate, and refreshingly human (the way it should be). You don’t need the right words, or a perfectly organized story to start, just a sense that something isn’t working and a willingness to talk about it. Reach out today to schedule an initial appointment, and we’ll take the next steps together.
Your first session is a chance for us to get to know each other. There’s no pressure to say everything perfectly or remember every detail. We’ll take it one step at a time.
We’ll talk about what brought you in and what you’re hoping might feel different in your life. I’ll ask about your mental health history, including things like past symptoms, treatments you’ve tried, medications, and any patterns you’ve noticed over time. We’ll also touch on relevant parts of your personal history (such as stressors, relationships, work, sleep, and energy levels) to understand the full picture.
