Getting to know Lauren Williams

Hi there, I'm Lauren! Lauren A. Williams, LCSW, is an accomplished Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master's in Social Work from Syracuse University. I have over two decades of experience working with adults and four decades working with adolescents in various capacities. My areas of expertise include treating individuals with ADHD, anxiety, anger management issues, bipolar disorder, difficulty coping, depression, eating disorders, grief, mood disorders, panic attacks, stress, low self-esteem, trauma and PTSD, life transitions, school issues, behavioral issues, and impulsivity. My approach I use an eclectic approach to therapy, incorporating Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Exposure Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, and behavioral management. My focus I see individual adults and adolescents 13 and up who suffer from anger management, anxiety, behavioral issues, bipolar disorder, chronic impulsivity, coping skills, depression, divorce, eating disorders, emotional disturbance, grief, impulse control disorders, infidelity, life coaching, life transitions, oppositional defiance, peer relationships, psychosis, school issues, self-esteem, self-harming, stress, suicidal ideation, trauma and PTSD, gender identity, job stress, thought disorders, and panic attacks. My communication style I have a very direct communication style and challenge clients to reach their maximum benefit. My journey to mental healthcare I have always wanted to work with teens and spent 25 years working with that population in a residential setting. This experience led me to become a licensed social worker, working with both adults and adolescents. I enjoy helping others reach their potential to succeed in life. My goals for you I meet clients where they are and build our therapy goals from there.
