About Lauren
Hi, I’m Lauren—a graduate of Johnson University’s Clinical Mental Health Counseling program. My passion lies in creating a space where genuine, vulnerable connection can lead to deep healing and personal growth.
I believe real change happens in therapy when clients feel truly safe, seen, and respected. My approach is rooted in compassion and centered around your unique story, your strengths, and your capacity to heal. I provide honest, thoughtful guidance that helps you gain insight and take meaningful steps forward—always at your own pace.
My work is informed by neuroscience and trauma research, and I draw from a blend of evidence-based modalities, including Person-Centered Therapy (PCT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), and Existential Therapy. I also incorporate creative, experiential techniques like sand tray therapy to help clients move through emotional stuck points and make meaning of their experiences.
Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, lost, or ready for something to change, I’ll walk alongside you with both empathy and practical tools to support your journey.
Outside of the therapy room, you’ll find me spending time outdoors with my husband most likely both of us chasing after our two kiddos, working out, reading with a cup of hot tea, serving in my church community, or dreaming up my next home DIY project.
If you’re looking for a space to feel safe, empowered, and heard—I’d be honored to support you. Let’s connect.
