You’ve spent so much of your life showing up for everyone else that somewhere along the way, you may have stopped checking in with yourself. On the outside, you might appear strong, capable, and high-functioning, but internally feel overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted, or stuck trying to hold everything together. Whether you’re navigating relationship stress, family expectations, burnout, anxiety, life transitions, or simply trying to rediscover who you are beyond survival mode, therapy can be a space where you no longer have to carry it all alone.

Hi! I have been practicing as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), primarily working with teens and adults, for 12 years. I am certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and I also utilize numerous other trauma-informed modalities in sessions.

I am a practicing Licensed Professional Counselor, a National Board Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, an author, an empowering media personality, and a proud veteran of the United States Army.

Prior to earning my Ph.D. in Psychology via an academic institution, I had already earned my Ph.D. in "Hustling" via the streets of the Bay Area in the dope game.

I always knew that I wanted to be a helping professional. As part of an assignment, while taking a counseling course designed to assist offenders with substance abuse problems, I had to write in five words or less what I wanted people to remember about me. My words were “helped people live better lives.” I have over 30 years of experience working with clients who live with psychiatric and substance use disorders. I started my "helping" career working for the Georgia Department of Corrections (GDC). After observing the effects of early childhood trauma on many of the offenders that I supervised, I decided to end my 21-year career with GDC and pursue an education in counseling. I have never regretted this decision! For the last 6 years I have provided psychotherapy for individuals and groups. I love doing what I believe I have been called to do and my life's work remains guided by those five simple words in my title. I look forward to helping you learn to live a better life!

Hi, I’m Lauren. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, struggling in your relationships, or carrying the emotional weight of infertility, pregnancy loss, birth trauma, or other reproductive experiences, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to navigate it by yourself. I specialize in helping adults who feel stuck, emotionally overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves. Whether you’re experiencing constant worry, difficulty regulating emotions, relationship challenges, or grief related to reproductive trauma, we’ll work together to understand what’s keeping you stuck and develop practical tools to help you feel more grounded, confident, and connected. My approach is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel genuinely heard without judgment while also leaving each session with greater insight and strategies you can use in everyday life. You don’t have to have everything figured out before starting therapy.

I’m passionate about a holistic focus to helping others on their journey to overall wellness. Helping others increase their self-awareness through talk therapy is key, and I believe once an individual recognizes their personal strengths & capabilities the sky is the limit. I integrate CBT with Motivational Interviewing on my mission to help people recognize what faulty beliefs, and unresolved past experiences may correlate with present day maladaptive choices & behaviors. Recognizing how these negative beliefs & behaviors may be the barriers to living one’s best life is just the beginning of motivation for change.

I truly saw the need for more mental health professionals in my community when I lost my father in 2006. Since that day, I began my journey of understanding the mind and how it works. We go through many major life transitions such as breakups, divorce, having children, new professions, loss of income, moving, pandemic stress and more. Most do not realize just how traumatic these seemingly “normal” events are to us at times. I am here to help you if you feel overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, angry or confused concerning anything that has been thrown at you in your life. If you feel that what you are dealing with is too much to handle on your own, please reach out to me. We cannot stop this cycle of numbing or ignoring mental health issues in our world if we do not start within. As a mental health advocate, I am here for you. I have seen the impact of a lack of relatable and accessible mental health programs and providers. I am here to be the bridge and get you the solutions, support, and guidance you need.

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
