Hello! We’re glad you’re here!
Lauren Brennan, LICSW
I believe we can all work towards more joyful lives, and I'm passionate to support you in your pursuit of meaningful change. I am especially interested in the interplay between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and how self compassion, cognitive defusion, and mindfulness can assist to bring you some clarity and peace. I work with individuals with a variety of different life experiences and concerns, including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, perinatal mental health, stress, and trauma. My therapy style most often incorporates self-compassion practice, acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, EMDR, and mindfulness.

Therapy can be difficult to start, or even resume, but I'm glad you are here! Within the therapy setting I create a welcoming environment by taking on a person centered approach, utilizing empathy, challenging you when appropriate, and using humor at times. I truly believe you are the expert of your life and experiences. I am here to walk with you to explore and navigate areas that may be a little difficult for you to do on your own. My specialities within the therapy setting include depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. I utilize CBT, DBT, IFS, and EMDR within the therapy setting to help alleviate symptoms you are experiencing.

I work with adolescents and adults who are experiencing life transitions, depression, anxiety, trauma, and body image concerns. My goal is to help individuals gain insight into their symptoms and the root causes behind them. I assist clients with learning skills and resources to manage distress and ultimately hope to help them live a life without mental health symptoms as a barrier.
I believe in the importance of the therapeutic connection and meeting clients where they are. I take a whole person approach and use a bio-psycho-social-spiritual lens. I pull from several different techniques including dialectical behavior therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, EMDR, and sensorimotor psychotherapy to help clients manage their symptoms. I also enjoy integrating Christian beliefs into therapy for clients who desire this.
During my years in practice, I have developed an understanding and appreciation of the uniqueness of each individual and family that I have helped. I believe we all develop patterns regarding how we think, deal with emotions, and relate to the people in our lives. Often these patterns have served us in the past. However, during times of stress, loss, or traumatic experience, these patterns may be unhelpful, and we can feel stuck. This is when therapy can make a big difference in feeling better and helping us live more effectively. I utilize strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, narrative therapy, and mindfulness-based therapy in my work with clients. My work is informed by attachment theory and the impact of trauma on how we experience ourselves and the world around us. I seek to understand your experience, your strengths, your challenges, and your values so that I can use my experience, skills, and training to help you move forward.

As a therapist, I believe in person-centered care. I seek to create space for my clients that is safe, trusting, and affirming. I view my work as a therapist as being collaborative in nature and I feel honored to be a part of your journey of growth, healing, or self discovery. I firmly believe all of my clients should feel empowered to be experts of themselves.
I take pride in being authentic with my clients. I have a background in Art Therapy and like to incorporate creative expression into sessions if clients are interested. I have worked with a variety of clients including adults, adolescents, and children. In addition to working as a licensed therapist, I am NEDA proficient providing an emphasis on work in grief, loss, and end of life topics.
My therapy style is warm and interactive, and my areas of interest include mood and anxiety concerns, racial identity stress, first generation American issues, financial stress, PTSD, and intimacy concerns. I believe in treating people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and existential therapy. I will tailor our dialog and work together to meet your unique and specific needs. I look forward to meeting you!

Looking for a therapist can be an overwhelming, exhausting, and intimidating process. In our culture of immediately prescribing labels, seeking individual success, and grappling privately with internalized criticism, it can be hard to know where to begin or which therapist might be the best fit. I provide a nonjudgmental, trauma-responsive, client feedback-informed, and harm reduction-focused approach to my work.
As a queer person, I recognize the interconnected impacts of heterosexism, religious trauma, and the overlapping forms of outgroup exclusion experienced by many bisexual and queer-identified individuals.
I generally incorporate principles from Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into my practice. Coming from a social work lens, I recognize that individuals are simultaneously experts of their own lived experience and also are often responding to the power structures in which they live with coping mechanisms that have best ensured their survival throughout their lives.
I am committed to remaining feedback-informed, racially and culturally responsive, body-positive, sex-positive, and dedicated to centering personal autonomy.
