Getting to know Lauren Silverman

Much of my practice has centered around understanding the unique complexities surrounding identity development and interpersonal relationships. I work with a wide range of presenting issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, grief, and trauma. I specialize in relationship distress, life transitions, communication challenges, exploration of sexuality and gender, and consensual non-monogamy/polyamory. I believe that transformative therapy begins with a collaborative and trusting therapeutic partnership, one that highlights the unique knowledge, strengths, and skill sets of each individual entering the room. Through trauma-informed practice, I aim to facilitate a safe and affirming therapeutic space. I recognize the ways in which institutions, systems, and intersectional identities impact individual experiences and overall wellbeing. My integrated approach to psychotherapy is based upon person-centered, existential, psychodynamic, and attachment-based perspectives. I am passionate about exploring the ways in which attachment and significant life experiences impact how an individual's identity is formed. I hold a Master's degree in Clinical Social Work from Columbia University, which has deeply informed my clinical expertise and commitment to compassionate care.

My partner and I have been suffering in a "bad," relationship for a very long time. With our therapist we have started the journey of re-connecting and remembering why we love one another. Thank you!
