Getting to know Lara Nassar
I help individuals experiencing a range of difficulties, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship problems of all kinds. I foster a warm, supportive environment and will shape our work to fit your individual needs and goals. Together, we will reflect on your experiences, open the door to new insights, and take purposeful steps toward healing, deeper meaning, and lasting fulfillment.
My work is highly individualized, and I take great care to tailor each session to your unique needs, goals, and life circumstances. I am results-focused and attentive to helping relieve emotional suffering in practical, meaningful ways, with a strong emphasis on what is happening in the here and now. At the same time, I prioritize developing a deep and nuanced understanding of you as a whole person — including your history, relationships, values, and the broader context of your life — so that our work feels both grounded and genuinely relevant.
Therapy with me is an active and collaborative process. Together, we work to identify concrete steps that move you in valued life directions, translating insight and understanding into real change. My goal is not only to help you feel better in the short term, but to support meaningful, comprehensive, and lasting change that continues well beyond our sessions.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I earned my Masters in Mental Health and Counseling from John Hopkins University, where my training emphasized evidence-based and integrative approaches to care. In my work, I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), interpersonal and attachment-based psychotherapy, mindfulness-based modalities, and trauma-focused approaches to help clients address ongoing challenges while also creating space to process both present and past experiences.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
After you request an appointment with me, I will personally reach out to get us set up for our first session. I look forward to meeting with you!
