What it’s like to work with US
Testimonials from current and former clients:
I highly recommend Lauren to anyone seeking compassionate and effective mental health care. She helped me work through service-related PTSD, anxiety, and depression with professionalism, patience, and genuine understanding of military experiences. I especially encourage fellow veterans, military members, and first responders to consider her services - her support made a meaningful difference in my recovery. - CB
Since I’ve been working with Lauren, I feel genuinely heard and understood. She creates a safe, supportive space where I can be honest about what I’m going through while learning practical tools to help me move forward. From the first session, I felt comfortable opening up. She listens without judgement and helps me make sense of my experiences while guiding me toward healthier ways of coping and growing. - MP
Working with Lauren has truly been life-changing. I came to her during a really difficult period, feeling overwhelmed and unsure of how to move forward. From the very first session, she created a safe, supportive space where I felt heard and understood. Her compassion, insight, and guidance have helped me gain clarity, build healthier habits, and feel more in control of my life. I’m incredibly grateful for the progress I’ve made and would wholeheartedly recommend Lauren to anyone seeking meaningful support and personal growth. -CG
Lauren is incredibly patient-focused, always taking the time to truly listen and understand before offering guidance. Her empathy and thoughtful approach creates a space where I felt comfortable being open and honest. - TB
After more than 20 years of lackluster mental health counseling within the Navy system, working with Lauren finally let me feel like I was making progress that I could see and feel in my day-to-day life. - DM
Lauren provided me with the tools and resources to right my own ship. Helping maintain self-dignity while navigating life's shoal waters is what sets her apart from other providers. - BP
I am thankful for Lauren everyday. She provided exceptional, trauma-informed narrative therapy that helped me process the anxiety from high-stress deployment experiences with clarity and confidence. Her approach normalized what I was feeling and equipped me with a practical framework to manage it, allowing me to continue showing up as both a strong father and an effective naval officer. -IE

Our guiding principles
GROWTH
Healing is a process, and growth looks different for everyone. We support clients as they build resilience, develop new healthy strategies, and move forward toward meaningful and lasting change.
COMPASSION
We believe everyone deserves to be met with empathy, understanding, and respect. Our work is grounded in compassion for each person’s story, experiences, and challenges.
SAFETY
A sense of safety is essential for healing. We provide a confidential, nonjudgmental space where clients can openly share their experiences and feel supported.
INCLUSIVITY
We welcome individuals from all backgrounds, cultures, ethnic groups, races, sexual orientations, and experiences. Our practice is committed to creating an environment where every person feels valued, respected, and heard.
