Lauren Pillster

My name is Lauren Pillster. I strive to create a safe, but relaxed atmosphere so that you are free to explore topics most important you. I am passionate about supporting individuals who are seeking change and transformation in their lives. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Oregon, and I have been practicing since 2012. Throughout my career, I have worked with a wide range of complex clinical cases and have had the privilege of supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds.

My therapeutic approach is grounded in a person-centered philosophy, and I tailor every session to the unique needs of each individual. I support clients holistically, recognizing the deep connection between physical and mental health. I draw from a variety of treatment modalities, including narrative therapy, motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and solution-focused approaches. I seek to provide a culturally sensitive safe place for you to share by offering warmth, empathy, and insight.

In our first session, I will get to know you and learn what your treatment goals are. We'll discuss treatment expectations and schedule follow ups.
