Do you feel like you or your child will never be the same again? Do you wonder if the trauma you have experienced is impacting your parenting? Many of my clients feel this way and are relieved to learn there is hope for healing. My name is Lauren, and I can help. Although I have advanced training in play therapy with children, I also work with teens and adults. I can help your child or teen with trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. I have a passion for working with parents to build parenting skills and increase healthy communication with their child/teen. I also assist adults with trauma and life transitions.

I use EMDR with children, teens, and adults. I am a Registered Play Therapist (RPT). With children, I blend play therapy with EMDR. I am also certified in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) which is another path to healing from trauma. I treat anxiety with a combination of play therapy and cognitive behavioral techniques.

I have advanced training, expertise, and experience in working with children and their families who have experienced sexual and/or physical abuse. If you or your child has experienced sexual abuse or any severe trauma, I would be honored to work with you toward healing. I would love to help you find hope as you navigate this difficult path.
