Lauren is a California-licensed psychologist who does therapy with real humans (not “perfect people”) and brings equal parts clinical expertise and blunt honesty to the work. Lauren provides telehealth psychotherapy, psychological assessment (including ADHD and autism evaluations), and clinical consultation, using evidence-based approaches like CBT, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing through a trauma-informed, neuro-affirming lens.

Her style is direct, collaborative, and grounded—think: practical tools, big-picture insight, and the kind of humor that helps you exhale when things feel heavy. Lauren works especially well with adults navigating trauma/PTSD, anxiety and depression, neurodivergence, identity and relationship stress, and major life transitions. She has extensive experience supporting LGBTQ+ clients and brings an affirming, knowledgeable approach for people in kink and polyamorous communities.
If you’re looking for therapy that’s effective, compassionate, and not afraid of a well-timed “let’s call it what it is,” Lauren is the therapist for you.
