Lauren Chase - ND affirming LCSW therapist

Our sessions will be an accepting, empowering space where you can heal in the way that best fits you. As your therapist, I will meet you with compassion, amplify your inner wisdom, challenge when needed, and take the time to build trust. We might explore parts work, meditation, yoga/somatic movement, expressive arts, and more. Overall, my approach is trauma sensitive, HAES-aligned, and neurodiversity affirming. I would be honored to walk alongside you in this healing process.

Mental health symptoms are not personal failings; they are often valid and adaptive responses to social injustices. This may mean naming and addressing issues like classism, ableism, racism, weight stigma, heteronormativity, or gender oppression. Systems of oppression live within each of us. I commit to ongoing critical self-reflection, listening, learning, and accountability. I aim to ensure that you are free to be your fullest and most authentic self during sessions.
