Hi, I’m Lauren — Licensed Therapist and Owner of Willowbrook Counseling. I’ve been a practicing clinician since 2022, and I’ve been honored to support a wide range of clients through many different seasons of life. I believe that meaningful change often happens in the small ways we show up for ourselves — including, but not limited to, showing up to therapy.

As a therapist who has her own therapist (who has her own therapist), I am deeply guided by Ram Dass’s words: “We’re all just walking each other home.”

Working with me means becoming part of a team. Using a collaborative, humanistic approach, I blend constructivist, person-centered, and strengths-based counseling to create a space that is uniquely yours. Our work together may include taking active steps toward understanding and empathizing with all parts of yourself, while also building insight, self-compassion, and clarity. I truly believe you are resilient, capable, and stronger than you may feel. Together, we can explore your strengths and how they can best support you, while also navigating current stressors and struggles.

My main goal is to provide personalized support by building a secure and trusting therapeutic relationship. I strive to create a space where every client feels seen, heard, and understood. I primarily work with teens and adults who are experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, relationship struggles, religious trauma, or the effects of sexual abuse, as well as those navigating major life transitions.

Outside of the office, I enjoy running with friends, cuddling my tiny dog, and cooking Asian-inspired dishes. I feel truly fortunate to be part of the Missoula community, and to give back through my work at Willowbrook Counseling.
