About Lauren

I am a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in affirming and strengths-based sex therapy for individuals and couples+. I have extensive training in evidence based trauma treatments and am particularly passionate about helping trauma survivors reclaim their erotic power and rebuild their relationship with pleasure.
Therapy with me feels relational, nonjudgemental, and holistic. I love sharing information from the scientific literature to help you learn about your body, make sense of any symptoms, depathologize, and normalize your experiences. I aim to destigmatize and reduce shame around our bodies, sex, and mental health. I am honored to help people find the joy, connection, and worthiness they deserve.
Please contact me for a free 30-min consultation to see if we might be a good fit.
