I love Lauren! She's so insightful, understanding, and overall just a great therapist. She really helps me to understand how to cope with what I'm experiencing and I find myself thinking deeper about my feelings and experiences after our sessions.
More about Lauren
- 5 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW-C
I earned my Master's degree in Social Work from the University of Maryland in 2019. I specialize in working with individuals navigating the perinatal and postpartum journey, focusing on maternal mental health. My goal is to offer a safe, compassionate space for you to process your experiences and regain balance during this transformative period. I am passionate about this work because I believe that the mental health of mothers is integral to the well-being of families. As a mother of two who has personally navigated my own postpartum journey, I combine my clinical expertise with personal experience to offer a truly empathetic approach.
I draw on evidence-based approaches, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness techniques, to help you build coping skills, manage stress, and improve your emotional well-being.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
