Hi, I’m Lauren!

I built Samskara Counseling as a mental health practice that also prioritizes the physical toll of our mental health. 'Samskara' is a sanskrit word that refers to the mental impressions that habits and histories build on our minds.

Hello, I’m Lauren!

I’m a clinical social worker who loves helping people find practical strategies for self care. I encourage mindfulness strategies because I believe self awareness is key to identifying the sources of pain & the strengths we have to heal and grow.

The goal of therapy is not to learn to suppress emotions, but to find ways to allow & experience our emotions without feeling as though they are drowning us or ruling our lives. My style is warm and down to earth with humor sprinkled in wherever possible.
