Hi, I’m Lauren! I’m the founder of Sense of Calm Counseling and a married mom of three little ones (4.5, 3.5, and 1.5). Life is never boring—and often a little chaotic—which I believe helps me be a grounded and relatable therapist. When I’m not working, you’ll usually find me with my family, thrifting, catching up on my shows, or enjoying quiet moments.

Are you fully content with your life? My guess is probably not. You probably wish something in your life is different or better. You might want to throw in the towel, give up on life, and avoid the pain altogether. It feels impossible for things to change, so why bother? Maybe you're struggling with intense emotional outbursts, the desire to hurt yourself, or unstable relationships. Or, maybe you find it easier to push away your emotions, avoid triggers, and exert control wherever you can. You don't want to feel the pain. So what can we do about it?

Talking through our thoughts is a beautiful way to heal, and for many, words come naturally. But sometimes, words alone only take us so far. If you have ever felt like you know your patterns intellectually but still feel stuck in your body or your head, you are not alone. I offer a creative shift to traditional talk therapy.

I work with pre-teens through adults, with a focus on supporting those navigating anxiety, trauma, family conflict, and high-masking neurodivergence. I also offer sessions fully in Spanish.
