Hi, I’m Lauren! This is where you can find the info that all therapists list on their website. If you have any questions about any of it, I’d love to hear from you!

I’m a Licensed Independent Social Worker with a supervisory designation (LISW-S) based in Columbus, Ohio. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Ohio State University and have a background in Art Therapy and Fine Arts, holding a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) from the Columbus College of Art and Design.

With over 15 years of experience teaching yoga, meditation, and mindfulness tools, I incorporate these practices into therapy in a way that is accessible and adaptable for all neurotypes. I acknowledge that not all methods work best for all neurotypes and aim to accommodate as best as possible. (I promise I won’t tell you to do yoga or meditate if you hate it!)

As a multiply neurodivergent therapist (meaning, multiple types of neurodivergence in one human), I know firsthand the importance of self-advocacy and ongoing learning. I actively seek out new information and training on neurodivergence to ensure I am providing the best possible care. I try to walk the walk and talk the talk as they say (whoever they are).

When I’m not working with the delightful humans I assist in therapy, I’m a typical ADHD’er doing either a lot of things at once, or curled up on the couch doing nothing! I love learning new things, reading, spending time re-watching comfort shows with my partner, taking hikes with our 3 pitbulls, lifting weights, doing yoga, or hanging out with friends.
