These are words I actually told my therapist in my session. And I totally mean them. “Ughhh I always feel so much better after taking to you! You always say the things that help motivate me so much. It’s exciting ever time because I feel like I’m so much better equipped to handle the issues.” I can’t say enough good things. She helps me find the deeper reason why and it’s like a domino effect that explains and helps so many other things.

Life gets difficult and unmanageable at times. Although it may be difficult to ask for help, know you don't have to work through it alone! I seek to provide compassion and empathy for my clients as they disclose personal and vulnerable struggles. Through that caring, therapeutic relationship, I aim to walk alongside clients and help them identify and work through their current needs. Whether you are struggling with more internal stressors like depression and/or anxiety, or you're struggling with relational conflict, I am here to help you get through it and grow from it!
I have specialized training in Couples/Marriage Therapy and also with adolescents and their families. I have experience and a heart for helping adolescents and young adults dealing with depression, anxiety, and/or relational issues with peers. I also have a passion for helping couples and families build more healthy relational patterns.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Lauryn is super supportive, a great listener and when needed offers excellent advice on a variety of coping mechanisms to help me with my problem.
Lauryn is incredible. We’ve been working together for the past few months and she helped me tackle my anxiety/depression head on. She heard my concerns and offered me tangible ways to cope with my anxiety. She was there to listen and hold space for me when I felt alone. She gave me so many tidbits of wisdom in every session that will forever stick with me. If you need someone to encourage you, support you, and hold space for you, Lauryn is your girl.
Lauryn is outstanding! She goes beyond listening and offers real techniques that I can immediately apply to my daily life. She is extremely knowledgeable & helpful. Highly recommend!
Lauren is an awesome councilor. She is very quick to respond, is flexible with scheduling, and is honest but considerate. She is exactly what I needed!
