Lauren DeTurk
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 specialty is working with couples doing couple's therapy or marital & family therapy. I thrive working with couples and am extremely passionate about this population.
I also have extensive experience treating eating disorders (binge eating disorder, bulimia, anorexia, eating disorders unspecified) throughout the years.
I also have experience treating eating disorders, postpartum depression and postpartum anxiety, and infertility.
First session
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
Strengths
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!
Ideal clients
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! I do not have any evening availability except biweekly Tuesdays at 4:30PM and biweekly Fridays at 4:00PM. I have bi-weekly Sundays available at 1PM. Weekly slots available: Thursdays at 12PM and Fridays at 10AM. **Starting, 9/2/26--I will only be accepting private pay/cash only clients.**
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use CBT techniques to help clients manage anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and stress to change the way they think, so their feelings will be more positive and healthier.
