My Approach

Lauren’s approach is structured, insight-oriented, and grounded in evidence-based treatment. She integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (ICBT-informed treatment for OCD), and mindfulness-based strategies.

She believes therapy should be both clinically sound and empathetic — offering practical strategies and nonjudgemental space for growth and reflection.

In her work with perinatal clients, Lauren supports individuals navigating postpartum anxiety, intrusive thoughts, fertility challenges, birth trauma, and the emotional complexity of parenthood. Her goal is to reduce shame, increase clarity and self-confidence, and build sustainable coping skills.

In OCD treatment, she helps clients understand the cycle of obsession and compulsion, develop tolerance for uncertainty, and move toward greater psychological flexibility.
