Licensed to practice in Pennsylvania and accepts 41 insurances. Specializes in Anxiety, Couples Counseling, Fertility & Reproduction Issues and 10 more.
My name is Lauren DeTurk. I got my LPC license in May 2014. However, I have been in the field for 27 years. My top 3 specialties are infertility, Postpartum Depression and Postpartum Anxiety, and eating disorders. Another specialty and passion I have is working with couples doing couple's therapy or marital & family therapy. I thrive working with couples and this population I am extremely passionate about. I also have extensive experience treating eating disorders (binge eating disorder, bulimia, anorexia, eating disorders unspecified) throughout the years.
In our first session together, I will ask you questions regarding your mental health history and previous experience in therapy: what worked and what didn't work, so I can best help you. Our first session is dedicated to creating a safe space for you to share what brings you into therapy, foster connection, and build rapport. https://www.psychologytoday.com/profile/1096107
I believe my biggest areas of strength are my empathic listening, years of experience working in the mental health field, unconditional positive regard for all of my clients, and eclectic approach to therapy. I have a 100% success rate for clients who have completed an intake with me scheduling a follow-up appointment. My #1 preferred niche/clientele are couples!
My ideal clients are motivated to put in the work necessary to make the changes they want to see for improving their lives. These clients understand that they are the ones driving the bus in terms of creating lasting second order change. They are willing to accept that progress doesn't mean they are instantly better and cured, but that it will take some time and are patient with the process. Clients that are able to ask questions and assert their needs and ones who take therapy very seriously and MAINTAIN their appointments and let’s be honest do their homework! Evening availability is LIMITED: I have biweekly Mondays at 5:15PM, biweekly Tuesdays at 5:00PM, and weekly Thursdays at 4PM, and weekly Fridays at 5:00PM. I recently discharged a successful graduating class of adults in the evenings and my evening slots are a LOT more open as I used to not have any.

Lauren really understands what I’m trying to say and what I mean. She focuses on solutions and helps me sort out my thoughts, especially if someone has confused me or tried to manipulate me. She helps me see the situation as it really is, and that makes it easier for me to understand things clearly.

We had our first session with Lauren recently as a couple and we really enjoyed it! Looking forward to more sessions ☺️

She has a subtle and easy-going way of playing devil’s advocate and cones up with possible solutions that I wouldn’t have thought of otherwise. Thanks Lauren
