Message from Lauren
“Life is messy. My hope, in working with you, is that you can recognize that you do not have to handle that messiness all on your own. I strive to create a warm, welcoming environment in which you feel seen and heard during each session. The pain, joy, sadness, anger, fear, etc. — it all deserves to be recognized and addressed throughout your life's journey. I will partner with you to brainstorm coping skills, develop a deeper understanding of your present self, and will foster open communication so that you feel comfortable sharing your thoughts each and every time we meet.
‘Life is brutal. But it's also beautiful. Brutiful, I call it. Life's brutal and beautiful are woven together so tightly that they can't be separated. Reject the brutal, reject the beauty. So now I embrace both, and I live well and hard and real.’ — Glennon Doyle”
