I help alcohol troubled people control or stop their drinking. I use The Sinclair Method, which allows most people to control their drinking by taking a Naltrexone pill our hour prior to every drinking episode. For most people (78% according to the research) this results in reduced drinking to a problem-free level; many people stop drinking completely. No detox or rehab is necessary and treatment consists primarily of brief, regular coaching. I refer you to physicians who are familiar with The Sinclair Method, and will provide the medical service necessary for you to use this approach. I provide coaching, support and encouragement.

People come to me confronting many issues in their lives, fears of intimacy, difficulty setting or achieving goals at work, marital problems, problems with other family members, grief and loss. I see my job as exploring these issues and finding ways to deal with and resolve them so that the patient is able to find ways to deal with their feelings, find solutions to their problems, and be able to move forward in their life in the most effective and healthy way.

My name is Lauren (she/her), I am a New York–based psychotherapist, coach, and Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). My practice is well suited to support identity-seeking creatives, folks struggling with perfectionism, and those navigating the weight of existentialism.

I believe all people are equipped with the tools to live a meaningful life. Only somehow, along our journeys, many of us learn we cannot trust ourselves - and, instead, look externally for direction. I am committed to helping you recognize and reconnect with your innate abilities. I provide a safe, non-judgemental space for you to reconnect with yourself and identify your goals. Using a collaborative, direct, and often comedic approach, it is my mission to help you feel empowered to do more than live - to thrive.

I feel comfortable with, have experience with and am adept at treating adults. I offer 1:1 in person and telehealth sessions.

I work with individuals to build their capacities for living life with greater ease, confidence, and self-compassion. My primary modalities are CBT, DBT, motivational-interviewing, and mindfulness.

For most people, the decision to enter therapy occurs at a difficult time in life. I recognize that those seeking treatment are often in pain, and I try to find both immediate and longer term ways to alleviate that suffering. I work with both adolescents and adults and help them to gain a greater sense of awareness of their own feelings and the impact they have on others, thereby increasing their options as well as their sense of mastery and autonomy. In doing so, I can help you become aware of avenues and options that never before seemed like possibilities.

I believe that we all possess the power to make lasting changes in our lives. We just need the right support. I take a holistic attitude to understanding the challenges my clients face, including paying attention to the importance of culture and environment. I believe that change occurs when we acknowledge intersectionality, the complexity of identity, and the important roles that social systems like family, religion, culture, class, gender, and race play in people’s lives, not when we ignore the broader picture and focus only on the individual.

As a clinical and sport psychologist, I generally work with clients who are seeking to reach higher levels of professional, athletic and academic achievement, yet are struggling with various types of anxiety.

Are you currently struggling with anxiety, depression, a mood disorder or addiction? My overall goal is to help you be the best version of yourself.

I help my clients to build up their self and thus to improve their self esteem.
