I’m Cecilia, and I work with individuals navigating stress, anxiety, cultural and family pressures, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Many of my clients feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward, yet want deeper self-understanding, emotional balance, and healthier ways of coping. I aim to provide a safe, supportive space where you can explore your experiences, feel genuinely heard, and build resilience while staying connected to your values and identity.

My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and culturally aware. I integrate person-centered therapy, mindfulness, and CBT tools to help you understand patterns, regulate emotions, and develop practical coping skills. Together, we move at your pace while building insight, confidence, and meaningful change.

Seeking support can feel vulnerable, especially if you’re used to handling things on your own. You don’t have to navigate it alone. I strive to offer a space where you feel safe, respected, and understood, and I’d be honored to walk alongside you when you feel ready to begin.

Hello! My name is Lauren, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience working with adolescents and adults in telehealth, inpatient, and field-based settings. Many of the individuals I have worked with have experienced challenges related to relational and childhood trauma, sudden loss, complex marital dynamics, infidelity, negative peer relationships, body image concerns, and other life stressors. The individuals I have worked with are no different than most of us, who on some level are seeking balance, peace, and reassurance. 

In our work together, we will explore the root causes of your most pressing concerns. Through mindfulness, person-centered, cognitive behavioral, and solution-focused approaches, we will work toward clarity and self-acceptance. You can expect a compassionate, judgment-free space for authentic self-expression, reflective listening, and renewed perspectives.

Being vulnerable and transparent in an unfamiliar environment can be difficult, but I hope to provide a comfortable space for sharing and exploration. I work well with individuals who are motivated toward change and insight. I have experience supporting those navigating depression, grief, anxiety, life transitions, and childhood and relational trauma. 

I have been practicing therapy since 2019 and hold an LPC. I typically work with couples who are facing communication challenges and broken trust along with helping them reconnect. I work with individuals and help them to gain healthy coping skills to deal with anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem.

I love to be collaborative with clients and be intuitive to specific needs they may have in the moment. That helps clients to feel seen and understood during their healing journey.

Healing is something we all must experience but being able to trust someone you can be vulnerable with makes it so much easier.
