Hello and welcome! My name is Lauren and I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in sunny California. When people ask me what I do for a living, I love describing the privilege I have of being a Psychotherapist! It is with great humility and empathy that I get to walk alongside clients during different seasons of their lives. If I could pick 4 words to describe my style as a therapist it would be invested, passionate, warm, and empowering. Nothing brings more fulfillment than meeting clients where they are at, learning about what's important to them, increasing awareness and insight within their situations, and using the client’s strengths to see their desired changes.

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

In our first session together, I strive to get to know you and what brings you into therapy currently. We will talk about where you want to be, the strengths you already possess that we can use to get there, and how we can create clear and structured goals for success.

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

Having worked at a non-profit agency, a PHP/IOP for adolescents with eating disorders, an elementary school, and a community clinic, I have developed a wide variety of skilled interventions that target several issues. I aim to make each session unique and tailored to the client and the struggle they are facing. My approach is warm, compassionate, curious, creative, and collaborative. Adding some humor and fun to our sessions provides some levity when appropriate. I strive to bring my authentic self and meet you with genuineness, respect, and an open mind.
