Getting to know Lauren Hajjar
Hi my name is Lauren and I’m a licensed social worker with both my Master’s and Bachelor’s degrees in Social Work from Southern Connecticut State University. I’ve spent the past five years working with individuals navigating a range of challenges, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, substance use, and parental or family issues. In my private practice, I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients feel safe to explore their experiences and work toward meaningful change. I use a collaborative, strengths-based approach and draw on evidence-based practices to support each person’s unique goals and journey toward healing.

Lauren is so easy to talk to. It's more like talking to a friend rather than a provider. She's relatable and friendly, making all sessions a breeze. She pinpoints issues and makes you understand why they are significant in your healing. Getting to the root and facing these issues in order to move past them and help you realize they are not as important as you are, yourself. You can't fix the past, but you can bandage it to secure a better future.
