About My Clients
Clients often find Lauren because becoming a new parent has awoken intense emotions, critical thoughts, difficult memories, and uncomfortable physical sensations. Sometimes clients meet with Lauren years after becoming a parent, due to unresolved trauma or challenges within the perinatal period. It really is never too late to start the journey of healing. Lauren provides a holistic approach that honors a person’s intersecting identities and spiritual or existential beliefs of each unique client.
