Are you feeling trapped by your anxiety/OCD, stuck in a cycle of fear & avoidance? Is your trauma history impacting your mental health & relationships? Are you looking for support to help you better understand your neurotype or identity? Whatever your journey is, I am here to come alongside you! My mission is to help trauma survivors from the neurodivergent, LGBTQIA+, & non-monogamous communities learn how to get unstuck, break free from fear, & live according to your values— what matters most to you.
The majority of my practice focuses on helping clients to recover from OCD & anxiety, heal from trauma, & thrive in a neuronormative world. As a lived experience clinician, I believe in the power of radical authenticity & lived experience. My approach is affirming & non-pathologizing, drawing from ACT, I-CBT, & ERP to help you take back your life.
Reaching out for support is the first step, & it takes courage & strength to accept the support you so deserve. As you continue on your self-discovery or healing journey, I will be here to support you every step of the way. Hope & healing are possible!

Lauren and Neuroqueering Counseling are wonderful. The instagram he creates neuroqueeringcounseling is a rich source of digestible OCD info and, in my experience, by showing up as exactly themself they reduce pressure to perform or mask. Highly recommend!
