Description
With over 10 years of experience in providing client-centered therapy, I have become passionate about helping individuals uncover and work towards their personal life motivations and values as well as providing practical skills and strategies in working towards a rich and meaningful life. My approach not only helps individuals manage their mental health in the short-term, but also helps orient the individual towards greater connection with what they want in life for lasting change.
Lauren blends behavioral based therapies, such as ACT, CBT, and DBT to:
- Teach practical coping skills and strategies to manage and build resiliency to life stressors, mental health symptoms, and challenging emotions.
- Improve communication skills to foster better relationships.
- Increase mindfulness and acceptance skills to improve one’s ability to navigate difficult emotions and overcome blocks towards their valued life.
- Contextualize the roots of mental health struggles to build insight.
Lauren additionally is trained in EMDR; a trauma processing therapy that aims to improve distress related to traumatic memories.
