A FEW WORDS FROM LAUREN:
I have eleven years of experience as a therapist and enjoy working with teens and adults who struggle with depression and anxiety, individuals who have experienced trauma, and anyone who is looking to improve their overall mental health. My goal with each client is to help them grow in their beliefs and challenge their perceived limitations. I specialize in teaching my clients to understand and lessen their stress response. I utilize many different methods including: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), behavioral activation, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and mindfulness training.

OTHER INTERESTS:
I moved to Boise, Idaho from Dallas, Texas with my husband and two dogs. We have since added 2 (non-furry) children to our family. I enjoy exploring the areas around Boise with my family and I am always looking for recommendations for new places to go!
