Lauren Cromer, LMFT, MA
I take a compassionate and collaborative approach to the therapeutic process. I use a combination of evidence-based psychotherapy practices to accomplish this, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Humanistic Therapy, Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP), Attachment-Based Therapy, Strengths-Based Therapy, LGBTQ+ Affirming Therapy and Neurodivergent Affirming Therapy.
So what does that mean?
This means you can count on me to show up as a real human being; a compassionate and understanding ear to flush out your unformulated thoughts and opinions, and an empowering force to help you hold onto the hope you need to inspire the change you want and deserve in your life.
This also means that I am going to stay committed to working with you and your unique brand of strengths, struggles and eccentricities in order to tackle issues in a way that actually works for you. So many of my clients are exhausted from trying to do things the way we’re “supposed” to because it works so well for everybody else. Unfortunately, the reality is that there’s not one right way to do things. With my approach, you’ll learn to understand & accept yourself so that you can stop focusing on your weaknesses, and instead start learning how to use your strengths to get you what you need and where you want to be.
Lastly, it’s important that you know this is a space where women have agency over themselves, survivors are believed, consent is mandatory, all bodies & abilities are beautiful, LGBTQIA+ rights are human rights, there are no borders, sex work is real work, neurodivergence (ADHD, ASD, AuDHD, etc.) is celebrated and black lives matter.
As a bi-racial bi-sexual therapist with ADHD who is a trauma survivor, my practice is committed to honoring each client as the expert of their own experiences. I find it of the utmost importance to hold space for the impact each individual’s intersectionality has on their lives.
