Lauren Widmark, LMHC

Psychotherapist
NY
Lauren Widmark, LMHC My approach varies based on what the client needs, and I use a variety of methods throughout treatment. I specialize in addiction, PTSD, depression, anxiety, and life transitions. I practice client-centered, emotionally focused modalities in treatment. Motivational interviewing, CBT, narrative therapy, and trauma-focused therapy are all approaches I have used during my time as a clinician. I have found that each client requires a unique form of treatment. I have worked in the addiction field for the majority of my career. This experience has allowed me to work with clients facing a wide range of struggles, mental health diagnoses, and backgrounds. Most commonly, I have treated addiction disorders, trauma-related disorders, and mood disorders. While therapy often involves serious and difficult work, I like to bring light and humor to sessions when possible. I want clients to feel comfortable and know they can speak up and be in charge of what they want from our time together. My journey to therapy began with a long-standing desire to work in mental health, specifically in addiction. I believe addiction is often a symptom of something deeper going on. I like to have clients be the directors when it comes to goal setting. Sometimes it can be difficult to know what you want or need from therapy, and I'm happy to step in and help. In our first session, I aim to gather as much background as possible and ensure I understand exactly what you expect and need from our sessions. I hold a Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from the State University of New York, New Paltz.
