Therapists in Wayne, PA

Let me use my 30 year + experience to help you with difficult transitions and those challenges that you would rather not face alone. Working together will find solutions to reclaim your power and find peace and tranquility.

Are you living with anxiety, depression, traumatic memories or struggling in your relationships? I'm here to assure you that regardless of the challenges you're facing, you possess the strength to navigate through them, to evolve, and to gain deeper insights into yourself. YOU desire to be heard, understood, and to ultimately experience a sense of well-being. Your struggles should not define you. Therapy can help you process and feel validated as you embark on your journey of healing. Basic Bliss Life Coaching and Counseling also offers online teen therapy, couples counseling and discounted sessions!

I have passion for working with individuals of all ages, genders, ethnicities, and backgrounds who have experienced trauma. The definition of trauma is subjective, but I believe it to mean any experience that hinders you from functioning in the way you did prior to the experience.

When families walk through my door, they immediately realize they’re in a judgement-free and trusting place where relief, support and reaching their potential can happen; what they’ve been searching for. My approach through Coaching is strength-based, solution-focused and collaborative. My special areas of interest and expertise include guiding families to prepare their children through divorce and working with teens and adults with ADHD and Executive Function challenges to build strategies that work for their brain wiring. I also help teens and adults with lingering concussion symptoms to navigate their lives with more ease.

I will help you to feel comfortable from the moment you arrive in my office. In my work I employ more traditional family-of-origin methods as well as newer modalities such as EMDR and Emotional Freedom Techniques. I work with individuals only, over the age of 21. I have expertise in Anxiety, Depression, Attention Deficit Disorder, Parent-Child, Work and Relationship Issues. I work with numerous mid-career individuals with work stress or those seeking to change career. Finally, I do enjoy pursuing spiritual and existential issues of life. See my website: www.Freedomineverymoment.com for more detailed information.

I use a relational lens, and therefore each session looks different based upon the client’s needs and experience. I work with clients to create safer spaces that feel real and honor the many experiences an individual may be navigating. To me, the most important thing is to care and love one another. My work is rooted in care and love for humanity and the goal of betterment of our society as a whole, starting with the way we treat ourselves.

For 30 years, I have worked with adolescents and adults to improve the quality of their lives and to enhance their relationships. Depression, anxiety, work-related stress, and family/relationship issues can be resolved by working together. Couples may start treatment to improve communication and problem-solving skills as well as to explore sexual and emotional intimacy issues. My experience as a therapist has provided me with various approaches to help people better understand and accept themselves, and to develop more satisfying relationships.

Appointments Available! Hello! My name is Lauren and I am so glad you’re here. As a skilled mental health counselor with over 25 years of experience, I enjoy helping teens and young adults, ages 13-26, manage life’s challenges. This time in one’s life is filled with transition, identity development, and emerging independence, and these changes can often create anxiety, worry, changing moods, and lack of self-esteem. In addition to the normative developmental changes, young people today face ever-evolving challenges in the age of social media, societal unrest & uncertainty, and significant pressure to experience success.

I work with men and women who struggle with anger, bitterness, and/or resentment. These issues have caused them to damage many of their relationships. If you want to change and work toward healing yourself and those you hurt, I can help with the process.

I am dedicated to helping you gain insight and develop tools to cultivate personal growth and relief from symptoms. You don’t have to face your struggles alone. I work holistically, meaning I consider the mind, body, and spirit. We will work together in a safe, compassionate, curious, and healing environment to understand yourself better and begin to feel connected, whole, and healthy. You can feel free to share your life and whatever you are facing. This type of work creates deep and lasting change.

You are facing a significant life challenge. Maybe it's the death of an important person, or the end of a relationship, or simply a natural life change. Possibly it is another type of challenge, such as recovery from addiction or trauma. Maybe your child is experiencing their own difficulties and you want to help them, but you aren't sure how. You have questions and concerns: Is what I'm feeling ok? How do I best help and support myself and/or my child? How will I re-make my life? What does healing mean to me ... and who am I as I undertake that process? Your questions are valid, and exploring them could be helpful.

I became a psychotherapist because my own therapy and therapist was so incredibly impactful. It is the greatest honor and privilege to bear witness to my clients' lives. I have an egalitarian approach; we partner together to give you the support needed to make whatever changes you are seeking in your life.

I provide therapy for individuals, couples, families, adults and children. I have worked with many different clients providing the support needed for change. My experience at various social service agencies, at a child and family clinic; and in a college clinic has given me the opportunity to work with many adults, children, adolescents and families. I find my training in marriage and family therapy is particularly helpful for my clients in that it helps individuals better understand their relationships with themselves and others in their life. I regularly look at the systemic process in relationships, and at attachment issues.

Something doesn't feel quite right anymore. Or maybe it never has. You've been feeling anxious, depressed, or had trouble expressing yourself. Maybe you've found yourself having big reactions that don't match the size of the situation. Or maybe you're just not sure what's next in life. I’m here to create a space for you to come exactly as you are now while exploring and moving towards the change you want to see in your life. Together we can help you develop confidence in your unique strengths and values, discover the most effective methods for achieving your goals, and find ways to nurture fulfilling relationships and experiences.

Counseling can be helpful when someone needs an objective person to listen, when their normal ways of coping no longer are working, or when they simply are feeling overwhelmed & hopeless. I work with people in a supportive & non-judgmental setting to explore their thoughts, feelings & relationships & in what areas they may be struggling. Together we identify one's strengths & find new, healthier, ways of thinking & behaving & outline a plan for initiating positive change in their lives. Through this supportive therapeutic relationship, we work toward sustained improvement in their everyday functioning.

I work extensively with couples, groups, and individuals. I honor the courage and vulnerability it takes to ask for help, to heal our wounds, and to embrace the messiness of our internal and external lives. Whether you are a couple seeking support in improving communication, intimacy, and connection, or an individual wanting to gain greater insight into the origins of your concerns and relieve distress, I am here to help. Therapy is the best gift you can give to yourself and your relationships, and my hope is that you will feel more empowered in your life to make choices and live life more aligned with your authentic self.

I am a pre-licensed therapist who works with teenagers, young adults, and adults in the individual, group, and couples therapy settings.
