Hello, I'm Lauren McFarland, a Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LCADC) with a Master of Social Work from Rutgers University. I specialize in working with adults experiencing substance use disorders. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing. I strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel empowered to build on their strengths and create lasting change.

I specialize in helping individuals struggling with substance use disorders. My approach is compassionate, nonjudgmental, and tailored to each client's unique recovery journey, using evidence-based therapies including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing. Whether you're beginning recovery, maintaining long-term sobriety, or navigating relapse, I provide a supportive space to build coping skills, strengthen resilience, and create lasting change.

My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and judgment-free environment where you feel comfortable being yourself. Together, we'll work to identify your strengths, develop healthy coping skills, prevent relapse, improve emotional well-being, and build a strong foundation for lasting recovery. I believe every client has the capacity for growth and healing, and I am committed to meeting you where you are in your recovery journey.
