As a compassionate and experienced therapist, my mission is to support individuals through some of life's most challenging experiences, including loss, acute and chronic illness, trauma, life transitions, caregiver burnout, depression, and anxiety. With an extensive background in healthcare and hospice, I understand that these difficult circumstances can leave you feeling overwhelmed, isolated, and unsure of where to turn. My approach is grounded in empathy, understanding, and evidence-based therapies to help you find clarity, healing, and strength as you navigate these challenges. I specialize in helping individuals cope with the profound emotional and psychological impact that these experiences bring.
Hi, I’m Lauren, and I’m so glad you found me!
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with 7 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges.
My practice is rooted in compassion, curiosity, and collaboration. I believe therapy is a space where you can feel truly seen, heard, and supported—without judgment.
Whether you're facing anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, trauma, or simply seeking personal growth, I tailor each session to meet your unique needs.
My approach integrates evidence-based modalities such as CBT, mindfulness, and solution- focused therapy, which will always be guided by your goals and values. Clients often describe me as warm, empowering, and down-to-earth. I strive to create a safe and affirming environment where healing feels possible and change feels achievable.
Outside the therapy room, you can find me running around the town, working out at the gym or at the beach (weather permitted). I'm a laidback, beach girl who loves to stay active. I bring that same sense of presence into my work with clients.
If you’re ready to begin—or just curious about what therapy might offer—I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
My journey began as a deeply personal quest for healing, shaped by significant challenges such as abandonment, neglect, and trauma. Overcoming hardships like poverty, familial substance abuse, and toxic relationships led me to a lifelong struggle with anxiety and feelings of isolation. In my search for relief, I explored countless self-help resources, pursued degrees in psychology, and experimented with therapeutic techniques, yet nothing seemed to offer lasting change.
Everything shifted for me about three years ago when I experienced a transformative moment that inspired the creation of the Blue Lotus Approach. This method has not only helped me heal but has also profoundly impacted my clients, guiding them toward self-awareness and resilience.
