A licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), a psychoanalytic psychotherapist and supervisor in private practice, Lauren has over seventeen years of experience as a clinician and educator in her field.  As she began to apply concepts learned through her study of psychoanalysis to her own life she noticed natural capacities emerging and realized that clearing disruptions in the emotional world provides access to our true nature. This information has revolutionized the way she sees and interacts with the world and she is passionate about sharing it with others.

Lauren obtained an undergraduate degree in Psychology from New York University, a Masters in Clinical Social Work from Fordham University, a certificate in Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy from the Training Institute for Mental Health, and a certificate in Psychoanalytic Supervision from the National Institute for the Psychotherapies. She served as an instructor and supervisor at the Training Institute for Mental Health from 2013 to 2018, and during this time she developed a curriculum for the intern program and taught for the Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Program. She served as the Assistant Clinical Director from 2017 to 2019.
