Hello and welcome! My name is Lauren Sherwin, and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I'm glad you're here. We all have challenges in life and need a helping hand at times. My goal is to help you achieve your goals. Together, we will identify your wants and needs, while implementing tools and strategies to help you heal. I have experience working directly with children, adolescents, and adults in a wide array of settings. My specialties include anger management, family conflict, depression, anxiety, life transitions, school issues, relationship issues, and self-esteem. My approach is strength-based and client-centered. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused, Problem-Solving, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I know selecting a therapist can be a daunting and confusing experience at times. How do I know where to start? Will I find someone I connect with? How can therapy help me? These questions and curiosities are a normal part of the process and I'm excited to help guide you and answer any questions you may have about therapy. Feeling better is possible!

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, we'll discuss what brings you to therapy, explore some of your history, and work together to develop a personalized treatment plan. Our first session is also a wonderful opportunity to discuss any fears, concerns, or questions you may have about therapist.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I believe my greatest strength is connecting with clients and helping them feel safe, heard, and supported. A strong therapeutic rapport is essential in order to help achieve treatment goals and build insight. I believe that therapy doesn't have to be stuffy-I work to create an open and comfortable environment for all of my clients!
