Lauren Brown
Counselor, MA, LPCC
Savage, MN 55378
I previously worked in a partial hospitalization setting treating adults with OCD and anxiety with extensive training in Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy (ERP).
We all deserve to discover and rediscover the happiest and healthiest version of ourselves in each life season. Entrusting someone to walk beside you can feel incredibly vulnerable. My aspiration is to create openness from one human to another where you feel seen and safe to show up authentically. You are the true expert on your life. I want you to leave each session feeling empowered as we process emotions, build awareness, and identify tangible action steps that align with your values. Together we can create a foundational “toolbox” of skills to anchor through difficult times, and include a dash or two of humor along the way.

Relationship struggles, family illness, career stress, and unexpected changes can leave you feeling overwhelmed—especially when anxiety, depression, or past trauma are also present. There’s no single “right” way to navigate these experiences, but you don’t have to face them alone. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, supported, and empowered as you move toward a more fulfilling life. Starting therapy often brings up mixed emotions, and finding the right fit matters.

You might be someone who feels like the past still has too much power over your present. Maybe you’ve been through something painful—big or small—that still lingers in how you see yourself, how you show up in relationships, or how you handle stress. You’re self-aware, maybe even insightful, but still find yourself stuck in patterns that don’t feel good anymore. And while you know something needs to shift, you’re not exactly sure how to begin.

FAQ - About Adult Counseling
Why should adults see a therapist?
Adults may benefit from therapy for a wide range of reasons—whether it’s managing symptoms of a diagnosed mental health condition like anxiety or depression, navigating life transitions, coping with grief or trauma, or simply seeking support during a challenging life period. Many adults find that therapy helps them build healthier coping skills and better process their emotions, which may lead to better relationships and reduced stress. It’s important to note that, unlike psychiatrists or primary care physicians, therapists do not prescribe psychiatric medication. However, they will often work alongside prescribing clinicians to ensure coordinated care and can provide behavioral therapy as an important addition to psychiatric medication. Mental health concerns can look different in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence, so finding a therapist with expertise working with adult clients is important. Conditions like major depressive disorder (MDD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for instance, may present or resurface differently in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence. Adult-specific stressors, such as job strain, caregiving responsibilities, relationship challenges, financial stress, or identity transitions, can also influence the onset and type of symptoms an individual experiences. Adult-focused therapists, therefore, are trained to understand these complexities and tailor care accordingly.

How do I know if a therapist is the right fit for me?
When seeking care, it’s important to understand a therapist’s treatment specialties and their overall approach to treatment . Some therapists focus on common adult conditions like anxiety or depression, while others specialize in areas such as trauma, substance use disorders, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. It’s also important to consider a therapist’s training when seeking care. Therapists hold various licenses depending on their training and state requirements. Common therapy credentials include Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs), Licensed Mental Health Counselors (LMHCs), Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs). Psychologists (PhD or PsyD) receive additional doctoral-level training and may focus on assessments or more specialized therapeutic approaches. All of these professionals can provide talk therapy but do not prescribe medication. When searching for a therapist, consider their credentials and training background to ensure a good fit.

How do I find a therapist who sees adults?
Psychology Today’s online directory allows you to search specifically for therapists who work with adults. Each provider profile includes key information such as clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. Reviewing these details can help you determine whether a particular provider aligns with your needs and can indicate whether they are a good match for adult clients.
