Lauren has helped me through the toughest time of my life. Losing my mother devastated me and it turned me into someone that no one wanted to be around. I was angry, bitter, sad, and unsure how to deal with those emotions. Lauren has been my rock through it all.

I'm truly grateful for Lauren!

Lauren has been a wonderful addition to my life. She helps me look at things from a different perspective without being judgmental, and still providing support when I need it. I can say with confidence I have grown through our talks.

Was going through a life change: new city far away from my family, was looking for a new job, and had just moved in with my boyfriend. I was having a hard time processing my loneliness looking for friends and my anxiety about finding a new job and handling the rejection of the search. I looked forward to my meetings with Lauren to chat through all of this with her.

This was my first experience with therapy and I was very happy to be matched with Lauren. She is patient, kind, and has taught me to be kind to myself.

I greatly appreciate the time Lauren takes to help me understand the fundamentals of why I think the way I do, and how to affect real change in my life in a clear and friendly way.

Lauren is amazing!

After years of having and on and off relationship with therapy, I decided that I deserved to take better care of my mental health. This became increasingly important during the pandemic and even more so if I was going to mentally survive at my current job. Lauren was so gentle during my first session with her and that created a safe and comforting environment for me. After the first session I knew I’d want to keep her at my therapist. I appreciate Lauren’s ability to empathize with my experiences that I bring to sessions. All while also providing a different perspective which has allowed me to be honest with myself more and hold my self accountable. I’m excited for my growth as I continue my work with Lauren.

So far I have only had one session with Lauren but I was absolutely blown away by how much ground we covered in such a short amount of time. She was so easy to talk to and got me to open up right away, which I was not expecting. She was also wonderful about promptly sending me tools that I can use to work through some of the things that are bothering me on my own time as well. I am looking forward to working with her more!

This was my first time coming back to therapy after 10+ years. Lauren was extremely patient, kind, and helpful. She took time out to send links and worksheets for specific areas troubling me. I would highly recommend Lauren for her professionalism and care. She was wonderful!

Lauren is a very genuine empathic therapist. She really listens to what is said and felt & reflects back. She is able to offer realistic options and ideas for change.

Lauren was great to work with. She listens intently and reacts to what you say with compassion and understanding. I appreciated that she could be a sounding board for the problems I was having, as well as having the insight to help me think about why I was having said problems. She was thoughtful in her responses to me. Personally, I didn’t correspond too much in writing, but on the occasions that I did Lauren was always quick to respond to my concerns and to leave the topic open for discussion during our next session. Absolutely recommend!

I thoroughly enjoy and trust Lauren she really listens or makes an effort to understand me with no judgement and point out things that I may have not thought of. I am really relieved she is my counselor and feel that I am improving day by day working with her.

Lauren is amazing! She's calm, collected, not afraid to say what's on her mind, but at the same time makes you feel like she's on your side. I haven't done therapy before but I couldn't have asked for a better person!

Lauren has been very helpful in helping me deal with a variety of issues that I’ve had and am continuing to get better at dealing with. A fabulous human being indeed!

Lauren is a great counselor! She hears what you have to say and provides great advice and solutions for you to try. She checks her messages frequently and never left me on seen. I've learned a lot from her and can say I am in a way better place now than I was in 2 months ago. I am going to miss having her as my counselor, but I am glad that I got to have a relationship with this amazing woman for this small period of time in my life. 10/10 would recommend!

I have really enjoyed working with Lauren for the past few months. She’s helped me to consider my life in new ways and has asked questions that have made me reflect and realize things differently. She’s given me motivation to make positive changes and has been encouraging all along! Thanks Lauren!

I just started working with Lauren so I can’t really speak to long term care but her responses thus far have been very insightful and have really helped me make sense of my personal and familial issues. She is prompt and timely in her responses as well. I look forward to continuing to work with Lauren and I would recommend her to anyone who is interested in BetterHelp

Lauren has been helping me a lot and just helping me see the reality of my situations and becoming my own best friend. She kind of breaks down things to me so I can get through phases of guilt.

I really appreciate the thoughtfulness of Lauren's responses. I wasn't actually aware I had an option that was not primarily text based on this platform, though now that you mention it I do see there is a little mic and video icon near the bottom of the screen. I don't think that is a critique of Lauren, however, more of a critique of BetterHelp as a platform.

Lauren has been very responsive since we were originally matched. She has been especially great at communication before and after our session. I look forward to continuing to work with here

I could not thank Lauren enough for all her help and guidance over the past few weeks. She listened with open ears and provided the support and reassurance that I needed. Usually I keep my feelings and emotions to myself and just "get over" them but it felt like Lauren totally understood where I was coming from and that made me feel completely comfortable and want to be open. From our very first conversation, I could tell that Lauren would be exactly what I needed to get through this tough time. I had never utilized counseling before and couldn't have asked for a better first experience or counselor. Thanks again!
