Hi! I’m Lauren.

I’m so glad you’re here

Have you ever felt like you were going down a boring, unfulfilling, and mundane path? Me too.

That’s what led me to where I am today.

After years of school, studying, and fulfilling everyone else’s dreams but my own, I finally reached my breaking point and that’s when I realized I needed to tune out the noise and start listening to my inner voice. Once I did, life became easier and I felt happier and more fulfilled - personally & professionally.

When I’m not helping others, I love going to the beach, spending time with family and friends, traveling, trying new restaurants, reading, & playing with my mini-goldendoodle, Newton.

What qualifies me?

I have had the opportunity to work in a variety of different roles where I worked directly with individuals who were in need of someone to listen to them and help them move forward with some aspect of their life. Some of my past experiences include working at a group home, the United States Senate, law firms, and a university.  

My educational experiences and the disciplines I have studied uniquely position me to work with a variety of individuals on many different topics.

Boston College – B.A. in Psychology and Communications

Harvard Graduate School of Education – Ed.M. in Psychology

Georgetown University Law Center – J.D.

Who do I work with?

My clients have been accommodating the needs and dreams of others, leading them to pursue mundane, unfulfilling, and “boring” careers. They have chased the dreams of others even when they had a feeling something felt off.

I work with people who are tired of making compromises. My clients are ready to implement change and are empowered to take control of their lives and honor their inner voice.

The 3 Cs

The 3 Cs are at the center of my work with clients.

Coaching: Setting goals, holding you accountable, and cheering you on as you achieve your wildest dreams.

Counseling: Helping you understand what your inner voice is telling you so you can begin living the life you’ve always dreamed of.

Consulting: Advising you on the next step while honoring your inner voice.

What People Are Saying

When I think of Lauren, I think of the word 'advocate.' No matter what issues you are facing, Lauren will be your advocate and has taught me how to advocate for myself, time and time again. I recently worked with Lauren through a tough long-term issue with a friend. This friend was someone who historically only reached out to me to talk about herself, or get something out of me when she was down on her luck. The cycle continued week after week, year after year, and it was causing me anxiety as she was tightly knit into my friend group. She was often sensitive and would blow up if I ever tried to defend myself, so I was really afraid to say anything to her after being knocked down many times. After talking with Lauren, Lauren gave me the confidence to plainly state my boundaries in a way that was honest, yet gentle. I was able to advocate for myself and my needs, and through my conversations with Lauren, I realized that I needed to personally step away from this friendship and find freedom in order to heal from my friend's years of selfishness towards our relationship. I couldn't have handled this without Lauren, and I have no doubt she treats all of her client relationships with the same care I've experienced over the years.

I truly wouldn’t be where I am without you. You know exactly how to make me feel comfortable during such uncertain times. It’s truly a gift. Thank you so much

I truly couldn’t have gotten through this period of my life without you. Thank you is truly not enough to express how grateful I am.

It’s just been so helpful to hear that it’s ok to change my mind and that I don’t have to have it all figured out right now!

Lauren’s ability to tap into my inner voice is uncanny. I always knew it was there, but I didn’t start trusting what it was saying until I started working with her.
