I provide support, skills and hope to children, teens, adults and families. I specialize in treating depression, mood disorders and anxiety as well as developing parenting skills and strengthening family dynamics. My goal in therapy is to guide my clients in improving self-esteem, self-acceptance, overall stability and enhancing overall functioning on a day-to-day basis. I value an individualized approach to meet the ongoing needs of each of my clients.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 16 years of experience working with children to older adults, I have had the honor of seeing the power of human connection and supporting people in various walks of life. Currently, I work with young adults, adults and some couples on issues such as fertility, mood and anxiety disorders (including those during the perinatal period). I also work with adults struggling with self esteem, body image and adjustment issues (new parents and students leaving or returning from college).

My experience as a former educator provides me with a unique and effective approach to helping my clients find their inner strength and existing wisdom. My passion is in eating disorder work and abolishing the diet culture that is so pervasive in our society. I am excited about teaching my clients practical skills for easing anxiety, relieving depressive symptoms, and finding a comfortable and healthy balance with life. I would love to help you recognize the beauty in your life that already exists as you work towards your goals and dreams.

Don’t give up. You are not alone. When we are experiencing emotional pain, healing occurs when an empathic and compassionate therapist helps you to explore and understand what your psyche needs. Pain is inevitable at times in our lives, although suffering does not have to be. Emotional discomfort is the signal from your psyche that change is necessary and crises and challenges can be opportunities for our psyche to heal and grow. If you have experienced a loss, are trying to manage conflicts with a partner, friend or colleague, or you are seeking to improve your relationship with yourself, therapy can be helpful.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in NY and CT, based in New York City for the past 24 years. Many of my clients come in when they experience life transitions, loss, challenges or the need for a life change. The insights into life that therapy provides empowers clients to make the changes they want to achieve. I have treated people from all cultures, identities, and walks of life in person at my office in Chelsea and virtually via Zoom.

I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor for over fifteen years. In that time, I have worked with a wide variety of behavioral health issues including depression, anxiety, grief, PTSD, sexual abuse, domestic violence, marital problems and trauma.

My ideal client is looking for therapy to help them and wants to change their life for the better.

Hi! I'm Lauren, and I'm really glad you're here. I know that we all have our own "stuff" that can impact how we navigate this world. Sometimes it's complicated. Sometimes it's painful. Sometimes it gets in the way of living a fulfilling, satisfying life. Whatever your "stuff" may be, I'm here to support you. Stress is tough; life is complex. No matter what you've got going on, I am not here to judge you. Whether you're ready to dive into therapy or are feeling a little bit hesitant, I want to make the process worth it.
