Lauren Braswell

Associate Marriage & Family Therapist
Associate Professional Clinical Counselor

Maybe you find yourself feeling lost—uncertain about your direction, your purpose, or the next right step. Perhaps the stress in your life feels relentless, or you’re caught in patterns that seem impossible to break. Or maybe you sense that you’re capable of more and ready for growth, but you aren’t sure where to start. Wherever you are, I’m here to offer support that is practical, hopeful, and grounded in real, sustainable change.

I became a therapist because I believe deeply in human resilience and the capacity for meaningful transformation. I am passionate about offering a space where you can discover your strengths, develop new skills, and create positive perspectives that enhance your life and build a solid foundation for the future. My approach is collaborative and solution-oriented, focused on helping you make attainable progress toward your goals. When we work together, I will support you with compassion, creativity, and a genuine belief in your potential. 

Together, we will strive to draw on your resilience and build the momentum needed to create purposeful change. My goal is to help you develop the tools, confidence, and internal resources that allow you to thrive long after therapy ends—achieving lasting, impactful growth.

If you’re ready to move toward your full potential, I am here to help you begin.
