About Our Practice
Located in beautiful Santa Barbara, CA, our therapy practice offers a flexible, supportive approach tailored to your life’s demands. Often when first reaching out you might be feeling anxious, stressed, trapped, disconnected, and lost. You are so busy there's no time to reflect or don't have the tools to "fix it" . We typically begin with weekly sessions to help you build confidence in new skills, transitioning to bi-weekly and then monthly appointments. At this point in our work you’ll feel there is a restoration of peace, contentment, happiness, understanding, support, connectedness and empowerment. Although still busy you will often find more joy in the mundane or everyday life tasks. You will set the example of a happy home people want to come to. We offer both in-person sessions for local clients and virtual appointments statewide, giving you the freedom to choose what fits best.

"Lauren was attentive and truly cared. She really understood what I was going through during postpartum and gave me tools to cope with my situation. To this day, I still use strategies she suggested. My overall quality of life improved after receiving perspective from her"
Testimonials
"I started working with Lauren when I found out I was pregnant with my second child. I had previously dealt with PPD after the birth of my first child, so I wanted to make sure I was taking steps to help me through my second pregnancy and birth. Lauren was amazing! She listened to me, and I really felt like she cared about me as a person, as well as a client. I trusted her as I was able to open up to her about a lot of grief and loss I had experienced in my past. I will always be grateful to Lauren for everything she did for me!"
Testimonials
"I was very nervous to start therapy again when I met Lauren, and she helped me to understand the importance of working through and talking about my past traumas
and situations"
Testimonials
"I felt truly seen and able to let my true self out. I always felt like the conclusions I came to were things I knew deep down. She asked the perfect questions instead of telling me what or how I feel. Since therapy, I listen to my intuition more and embrace the challenges of life. I see myself as a growing person on a journey and I recognize the work I’ve put in to heal with her help"
