Hi there, I'm Lauren Have you experienced trauma from childhood or adulthood? Have you served in the military? Do you feel pulled in a million directions, unable to fit it all in? Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, work and health? Are you a high performer trying to manage trauma, anxiety and avoid burnout? Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to living a higher quality of life! Whether you're dealing with trauma, relationship issues, or cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help!! Seeking therapy can feel scary, but you're making the right choice to better yourself and make a positive impact in your own future! You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hangups and habits holding you back. Let's just chat and figure this out TOGETHER!

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

During our first session, I will collect some background info and information related to your current symptoms. You can ask me questions and we will just chat. At the end, I will ask if you are comfortable and would like to engage in routine sessions.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I have been a trauma therapist for 10 years. Primarily working with Combat Veterans, current Military members and victims of Military Sexual Trauma. I also have extensive experience working with individuals that suffer with anxiety and depression. My approach is somewhat untraditional and informal. I like to create a safe, nonjudgmental space for everyone. You can cuss (I might cuss too!), you can yell, you can stand, sit or lie down. You won't offend me or scare me. Let's do this together! You are never alone, please don’t forget.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I help individuals who feel stuck in cycles of anxiety, people-pleasing, or unhealthy relationships create meaningful, lasting change. My clients are often insightful but unsure how to move forward. In our work, you’ll gain clarity, stronger boundaries, and the confidence to make decisions that align with who you truly are If this resonates, I invite you to reach out and take the next step.

She’s so much more than just 2 categories. I feel comfortable and safe sharing with her. She is open and honest about my journey and what it can look like. She’s open to how I process things and using it as a strength when it comes to coping skills. She’s helping me dig deeper to discover my triggers and how I can handle them from day to day. Very understanding, 10/10. I was nervous about signing up from hearing other’s experiences with therapy but I’m glad I made the leap to unpack with her!

Lauren has been so helpful for me and all of my struggles. Lauren always engages in active listening and is extremely open-minded while also challenging some of my thoughts or concerns. She is very easy to talk to and provides me with some much needed levity and grace at times. Lauren has also proven to be flexible and accommodates her client's needs. Thank you for all of the awesome work that you do. I appreciate you more than you know!
