I see clients through Full Life Counseling & Recovery which has its roots in substance use and recovery services, but offers a wide array of services for those seeking support for concerns outside of substance use, too.
I take special pride in providing individual therapy to adult clients who are overfunctioners or perfectionists in the face of stress, those who demonstrate compassion towards others but have difficulty extending the same compassion to themselves, individuals who feel stretched thin by the demands of their life, those who wish to explore their relationship with drugs and/or alcohol or have a loved one with a substance use issue, and individuals impacted by trauma. Clients often work with me to address their anxiety (including OCD), depression, substance use, stress related to life changes, and relational difficulties.

My name is Lauren and I am passionate about my work with individuals who have a history of trauma, substance use, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, ADHD, mood-disorders, and BPD. I enjoy being able to encourage my clients as they become more aware of their strengths and unique qualities. It's not often we have unconditional support from others which is why counselors often help us navigate our way towards self-acceptance and self-love.

I've worked with many professionals managing depression, substance use/abuse, anxiety, life-work balance stressors, eating disorders, and sexual matters.
I enjoy meeting clients right where they are and partnering with them to consider and predict the natural consequences which come to bear based on choices. My approach to therapy integrates mindfulness with solution-focused and reality-based approaches. I am EMDR trained as well and we can incorporate this as needed. Often we are driven into counseling either by an internal or external demand which no longer allows us to exist as we are. Counseling is about making a choice to manage life differently, or not--and not making a choice, is nevertheless still a choice.
