More about Loren

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMFT

I have worked in hospital outpatient centers, community mental health, residential recovery centers, and in-home services with survivors of sexual assault and adults who struggle with addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders. I am interested in understanding one's emotional responses, interpersonal concerns, and patterns in relationships, identity development, and bettering the person's life as a whole. I believe that every person can grow into the best version of themselves through therapy. When we look inside and grow through what we’ve gone through, we can achieve our true potential. I feel that anyone can benefit from therapy and that’s why I take an approach that empowers the client to challenge who they are and make the change they are wanting.
