You are your story, and you are more. You are strong, brave, courageous. We humans are angry, sad, confused, lonely, ashamed- can these be turned to good? We are deeply discouraged, seek forgiveness, or require a mirror to understand our need. We fear, we desire. In our noisy stimulating world we long for silence in our soul, to listen, so that we might know what we are called to do.

Hi, I'm Lauren and I love helping clients discover strengths to overcome situations and learn new ways to cope with tough situations. I believe anyone can overcome their challenges, and I can help you along that journey.

As your therapist, we will process anxiety, depression, past traumas, reroute negative behaviors, & learn how lived experiences impact the way you view the world currently. My clients often seek therapy because they are wanting to uncover the meanings behind their emotions; together, we are often able to uncover the meaning behind these emotions by better understanding past traumas encountered. Only then, can we replace negative behaviors that have stemmed from these traumas, together. I provide a safe & genuine space for LGBTQ clients & practice from an inclusive & client-centered perspective.

I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. When you dare to delve into the intricate pages of your personal narrative, you will find yourself on a path toward self-awareness and self-acceptance. This journey can involve unearthing your past experiences, understanding your thought patterns, and recognizing the emotional landscapes that have shaped your life. It's a process that calls for introspection and vulnerability, but in return, it offers the potential for profound transformation. Exploration of self has the power to reshape your existence in ways you might have never thought possible
