More about Lauren

  • 12 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

As a licensed therapist in Pennsylvania, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating day to day and complex emotions. My professional approach centers on helping young adults and adults manage challenges like social anxiety, mood fluctuations, and life transitions.

With over a decade of clinical experience, I offer compassionate, evidence-based support for those struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem concerns. I understand that each person's journey is unique, and I'm committed to creating a supportive, non-judgmental therapeutic environment where you can explore your experiences and develop meaningful coping strategies.

My practice focuses on empowering clients to understand their inner strengths, work through traumatic experiences, and build resilience. I draw from trauma-informed and client-centered approaches to help you develop practical tools for emotional well-being and personal growth.

I'm dedicated to providing affirming, progressive care that respects your individual experience and supports your path toward healing and self-discovery.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
