Meet Lauren
You are here because you want something to change. Maybe you are feeling stuck or uncertain about the direction of your life. Maybe you want to improve your relationships, with others or with yourself. You are ready to do the work but need some support and a thought partner to help guide the way. That is where Lauren comes in.
Lauren's unique combination of three master’s degrees supports her skillset of critical thinking, problem-solving, empathy, and emotional intelligence. She brings a fresh perspective to therapy, one grounded in the belief that acknowledging life's challenges is the first step toward growth, and that understanding their deeper origins is what gives you the awareness and control to truly move forward.
LPC, M.PHIL.ED., M.S.ED., MBA, NCC
Approach & Style
Lauren’s approach to therapy is both supportive and challenging. She works to create a safe and nonjudgmental space where you can explore what is happening in your life, uncover patterns, and gain clarity about your thoughts and emotions. Guided by trauma-informed psychodynamic work and systemic therapy, she will help you connect your experiences to deeper insights while equipping you with tangible tools and strategies for meaningful change.
She wants you to share your goals and objectives so that together you can craft a plan for how to achieve them most effectively and efficiently.
Above all, Lauren believes therapy should be purposeful. She's not here to let you vent indefinitely, she's here to help you make real, lasting progress.

Fun Facts
When she's not busy petting every animal in sight, you can find her sipping bubble tea (there's a great spot right next door to her Old City office), staying active with pilates and weight lifting, baking something chocolatey and sweet, or tending to her one-too-many plants.
