I look forward to meeting you and getting to know more about your goals and needs.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions and find out more about who you are and what has brought you to therapy. We will start to build a foundation for our therapeutic relationship together. When you feel established and ready, we will then dive into the specific challenges you're facing and what may have brought you to these issues. This will help me create a client specific plan for us to work through together as we help you become your best version of you.
Having worked with adults, adolescents and families for the past 15 years, I know the value of client centered treatment and therapeutic approaches. I am eager to help you identify the root cause of your challenges and to help you create a specific plan that leads to measurable growth and progress. My hope is to identify the barriers that are interfering with your ability to thrive.

First meeting was great. Lauren really helped me to step back and see things from a bigger perspective as well as giving me small tools to implement into my daily life.
