Our counselors provide therapy in Lawrenceville, GA

Hello! My name is Lauren, and I hold a bachelor's and master's degrees in social work. I am clinically licensed and have worked in the field since 2009. I have worked with adults and adolescents in telehealth, inpatient, and field-based settings. Many of the individuals I have worked with have experienced challenges around relationship dynamics, sudden loss, marital and financial stressors, infidelity, negative peer relationships, body image, and balancing career and household demands. 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, I seek to give space to investigate root causes to some of your most pressing issues. Through exploration, utilizing mindfulness, person-centered, cognitive behavioral, and solution-focused approaches, we will work toward more clarity and self-acceptance. You can expect a receptive and compassionate, judgment-free approach. 

I know that showing vulnerability and transparency can be tough, but I would like to share that space with you. I can best support individuals who are motivated toward change and are insightful. I specialize in anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, and life transitions. If this sounds like you, reach out! 

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.
