I am passionate about helping others reach their true potential and I am incredibly excited to have the opportunity to work with you to overcome mental health problems, trauma, grief and loss, relationship problems and other life struggles and transitions. Individuals from all backgrounds are welcome - care is confidential and non-judgmental. My goal is to help you become the best possible version of yourself.
I offer mental health care for a range of mental health problems including trauma/PTSD, depression, anxiety, eating and body image disorders, relational concerns, life transitions, and managing terminal illnesses. My expertise includes somatic therapies and using legal, low-dose psychedelic medicines (cannabis and ketamine) to rapidly process trauma.
I am especially interested in helping people overcome trauma, integrating interpersonal therapy with somatic treatment for fullest improvement in well-being. I will listen to you and your values and my overarching goal is to help you overcome life's challenges so that you can live more happily and more fully.
Take the first step to help. Call or Lauren Welter now - (319) 250-2240
