Professional Bio

Hi! My name is Lauren Whitehead and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker experienced in working with individuals from all walks of life. I help my clients navigate challenges like anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship difficulties, and big life transitions. While these situations can be painful and stressful, they present great opportunities for personal growth with the help of therapy.

My favorite part of being a therapist is watching my clients grow, overcome obstacles, and find strength within themselves. I truly believe in the power of positivity and small changes and I’ve seen firsthand how the power of small, positive changes can have a lasting impact. Sometimes, just one small positive thought in the morning can change the trajectory of your entire day. Whether it’s practicing mindfulness, learning healthy coping skills, or simply adopting a more compassionate mindset, these shifts in thinking and behavior we identify in therapy can transform the way you approach life.

As your therapist, I promise to listen intently, provide support, and create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Therapy is a journey, and I will walk alongside you every step of the way, providing the tools and insights that can empower you to live a more fulfilling life. No matter where you are on your personal journey, and even if you’re unsure of what you want to work on, we can explore that together. Sometimes, the act of simply showing up for yourself is the first step toward lasting change. Find a spot on my calendar and let’s get started!

I look forward to learning more about you!

Sincerely,
Lauren Whitehead, LCSW
