My Approach
I tailor my approach for each individual client, however I particularly enjoy using elements of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and Health At Every Size (HAES).
I provide a warm, compassionate approach, while helping clients to take concrete steps towards improving their relationship with food, their body, and ultimately themselves.
Additionally, I take a holistic approach to treatment and believe that it's helpful to work as a team i.e. having a doctor, dietitian, psychiatrist etc. depending on the client.
In addition to individual therapy, I also offer couples and family therapy to help lessen conflict and improve relationships.
I love doing this work. I feel grateful to be able to help clients to find freedom from eating disorders and OCD.
*I am taking on a limited number of new therapy clients. If spots are full, I am happy to refer you to another clinician or put you on a wait-list.
"Lauren was an invaluable asset to the behavioral health care team when she worked with me. She supported her clients with genuine empathy and astute clinical skill. Lauren also has a remarkable ability to remain positive and upbeat even when faced with challenging and stressful circumstances. Her personality and well developed skill set were of benefit to both her clients and her colleagues."
