Trauma and PTSD Therapists in Ephrata, PA

Whether it’s depression, anxiety, trauma, sexuality, high achiever burnout, or relationships, I’d love to hear your story and help you write the next chapter. My job is to plant the seed of hope so you can envision a happier, more authentic, less stressful life for yourself. You are strong, resilient, and brave for choosing therapy.

I consider it such an honor to journey alongside people as they work towards wholeness and hope. Through consistent patience and exploration, new pathways are formed in our minds as we find ourselves viewing the past, present, and future in new ways. I would love to join you in your process. If you want to share your story and your goals, I can hold space for you; help you learn about yourself, your patterns, and your scripts; examine your choices with you to determine how they help and hurt you based on your values; and utilize EMDR therapy to address trauma and other distressing experiences.

I can help you stop fighting yourself and create a more peaceful and meaningful life. I see therapy as a dialogue, with us exploring together what works and is important for you. As a skills-based, solution-focused therapist, my clients often find that our work helps them better understand themselves and their patterns, and develop new, more effective ways of coping with challenges.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker I am trained to take a holistic approach to healing. That’s really just a fancy way to say that I help you look at and focus on everything that makes you, you. And you are not just your diagnosis or symptoms. Healing is hard. Change is hard. But they are within reach. That’s why I am driven to do what I do. I work with individuals to make that easier by creating a safe place to explore strengths, family history, support systems, community, and barriers. Together we walk the journey to healing and change, whatever that may look like.

Life can be difficult to navigate through sometimes. I am devoted to helping individuals recognize the strength within themselves and feel empowered by who they are.

Additionally, I provide a safe and affirming space for clients within the LGBTQ community to explore paths to their truths and desired lives.

Hello! I'm Lauren! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional that provides counseling to teens, college age young adults, and adults. I enjoy working with people individually that struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationships issues.

Are you looking for someone who doesn’t judge a book by its cover? Do you yearn to be openly, unapologetically yourself without fearing rejection? I’m here to hold space for you- the whole you- not just the individual aspects of your identity. My client-centered, trauma-informed approach focuses on connection, compassion, & reclaiming your power. I see the parts that make you vibrant, interesting, & wholly unique as strengths to be celebrated. I want to help you recognize, cherish, & celebrate your worth.

When our sense of safety is shattered or we find ourselves fragmented rather than whole, we can feel trapped and helpless. We may feel unable to move forward into a world that feels overwhelming or unsafe. The story we are living can feel like one of scarcity and survival rather than one of security and celebration. Counseling offers you the space to explore your story in the context of a secure relationship and discern how to write the next chapter of your story with courage and confidence.

I have a heart to serve individuals going through difficult times in their lives. I work with clients facing depression, anxiety, anger, post-traumatic stress, and adjustment disorders. Individuals and families find encouragement and support while facing grief and loss, separation and divorce, abuse, and other stressful or traumatic events. They find healing from past pain and hope for a better future through the therapeutic process.

If you are hoping to rediscover joy, overcome anxiety, or work through a relationship that feels really hard, I can help. My years of experience have shown me first hand that many of us are in desperate need of a safe space to feel seen, heard, and understood. I utilize a trauma informed approach, including EMDR. I do not believe that one therapy approach is the best for everyone. I will work with you to navigate your unique therapy journey. Together, we will identify the resources that you already have within you to build support. We’ll also gather some new tools that you can put to use in your everyday scenarios.

I provide a safe, inclusive environment for clients to "Come As You Are" and build on the existing strengths that exist in each person. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with my Master's and undergraduate degrees in Social Work. I also have High Honors from the Phi Alpha Honor Society for my study in the field. I have over 14 years of experience working in the human services fields. I am Certified in Sexual Abuse Trauma by the American Academy of Experts in Traumatic Stress. I am EMDR trained and provide intensive EMDR sessions. I combine my knowledge of trauma and EMDR.
