Getting to know Lauren Pierre
Welcome and thank you for considering Free The Mind as your next therapeutic support system. Seeking therapy can feel a little embarrassing, or maybe even frustrating, but you're making the right choice. Have you been struggling with grief or loss? Do you find it hard to stay happy this time of year? Did you survive a traumatic event and now feel like a completely different person? Well, there's a group for that! I utilize group therapy and psycho-education to normalize the therapeutic experience when individual counseling can feel isolating. Group offers the client relatability and community. Witnessing the healing and growth of others can help you experience healing and growth of your own.
If this is your first time seeking therapy, or you aren't quite comfortable with the group experience, individual therapy is available. Have you noticed increased anxious feelings? Let's practice grounding with some systematic desensitization. Are you tired of feeling a certain way and just can't seem to get over things? Maybe we can try brainspotting. Have you survived a sexual assault or violation and are not sure how to move forward? Let's try EMDR.
Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to balance. We'll use a whole self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body, and spirit. I can also provide you with information for additional support services that can enhance your process. I hold a Master’s degree in Professional Counseling from Argosy University, Atlanta, which informs my compassionate and evidence-based approach. I'm here to help. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. Let's work together!
What should a new client know about working with you?
Whether you're coming for individual therapy or group therapy, every new client will have an initial intake assessment session first. This session can range from 60-75 minutes depending on the amount of information provided. In that session you will elaborate on your answers from the intake form; and together we will explore your symptoms, identify goals, and discuss a treatment plan. From both individual and group therapy you can expect to take away skills; a feeling of support, challenges to old beliefs, and just enough insight to keep the wheels of change spinning.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

Lauren has helped me recognize the power of therapy in just a few visits. I am thankful to have found her so early on in my therapy journey and already can tell how much I have grown since meeting with her. I'd recommend her in a heart beat.

She was incredibly straight forward with what she wanted to accomplish in a session and what she wanted to do moving on as well as her policies. Absolutely great and incredibly understanding.
