Getting to know Lauren Biss

I view therapy as a space for both insight and action. While understanding ourselves is important, meaningful change often happens when we combine self-awareness with practical tools, self-compassion, and support. My goal is to create a warm, collaborative environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes in their lives. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, OCD, ADHD, trauma, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, and self-esteem concerns. I tailor treatment to each client's unique needs and draw from approaches including CBT, DBT, ERP, parts work, mindfulness, and creative interventions.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Clients often describe me as warm, genuine, and easy to talk to. I believe therapy works best when there is a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust, collaboration, and authenticity. My style balances support with practical skill-building. Together, we'll explore patterns that may be keeping you stuck while also identifying concrete strategies to help you move toward the life you want. I strive to create a space where you can show up as yourself without judgment and feel supported through both challenges and growth.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

The first few sessions focus on getting to know you, understanding your goals, and exploring the experiences that have brought you to therapy. From there, we work collaboratively to develop a treatment plan that fits your unique needs. Depending on your goals, our work may include building coping skills, challenging unhelpful thought patterns, processing past experiences, practicing exposure-based strategies, exploring different parts of yourself, or strengthening self-compassion. I believe therapy is not one-size-fits-all, and I adjust my approach to meet each client where they are.
