You Deserve to Thrive
Welcome, I’m so glad you found me!
I’m Lauren (she/her), call me LT if you’d like!
Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist [#130053]
I’m a Biracial Black and White Hispanic therapist living in Los Angeles. I could eat sushi for every meal, cuddle my dog Brooklyn for hours, & watch Insecure until the power goes out (then keep watching on my phone until the battery dies). I enjoy curling up with a good book, when it rains, & spending hours baking in the sun, when it’s not. Despite California stereotype, hiking is not my deal, but I’ll jump at the chance to wander a museum any chance I get.
My therapeutic approach is one of collaboration, connection, trust, & respect. As a team, we’ll address & overcome the barriers blocking you from living the life you deserve. I help Black and Biracial women as well as ALL marginalized folks conquer anxiety, depression, trauma, throughout all life transitions in order to lead a life that is more authentic and fulfilling.
The goal is not just to survive, but to thrive!
As a certified Mindfulness Educator trained in Brainspotting, I believe in incorporating mindfulness practice into our therapeutic work to strengthen your ability to remain present & mindful throughout your journey, both in therapy & beyond.
In our work together, I will never insist I know the best way, but rather walk beside you, providing support & care while you discover your own true path to balance & fulfillment.
I look forward to meeting you!
“There is an anxiety in being yourself, though. There is the haunting question of "What if?" always lingering. What if who I am will never be enough? What if I will never be right enough for someone?”
