About Lauren

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 12 years of experience helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and discover lasting growth. I have worked extensively with adults and teens facing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, and life transitions. My approach is grounded in empathy and empowerment, allowing clients to set achievable goals while developing self-awareness, confidence, and resilience in a supportive therapeutic space.

I earned my Master’s in Counseling Psychology from the University of Colorado. I use evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior therapies to help clients build insight and create meaningful change. My goal is to meet each client where they are while fostering steady, compassionate progress.

I look forward to supporting you on your journey. No matter what you’re facing, healing and growth are possible with the right guidance and care. Take the next step and schedule your appointment—I’d be honored to work with you and help you move toward the life you deserve.

"As an older queer person, I understand the nuances of life on a particularly hard road, and the strength it takes to traverse that road."

Get to know Lauren

Why did you decide to become a counselor or psychiatric provider?

I decided to become a counselor when my best friend passed who begged me to make a difference in the world.

What types of clients do you work best with?

I work best with adults with decent functionality.

What's one thing you wish all clients knew about therapy, mental health, or the healing process?

I wish they knew that things generally get better with a lot of good work.

What can clients expect in their first session with you and in the early stages of therapy?

Clients can expect us to be getting to know each other and the problem.

What personal experiences or values inform your practice as a therapist/provider?

Values that inform my practice are freedom and compassion.

How do you tailor therapy to meet each client’s unique needs?

I meet clients where they are because we do not fit in a box!
