OUR HEALING COLLECTIVE

LAUREN HUNLEY, PRE-LPC THERAPIST

HI, I'M LAUREN

I recognize that finding balance, whether it be in your relationships, identity, sexuality, or culture, on top of daily responsibilities can be stressful. You may be avoiding conflicts and putting the comfort of others before your own need to express your true self. Possibly letting others' words, emotions or reactions seep inside you and take the space of your own. This can leave you feeling drained, exhausted, or simply not good enough. It can be painful and scary to go through this alone. You matter too. You deserve to have the life you wish to live.

I know what it’s like to feel misunderstood, unsupported, or different from those around us. I became a therapist to encourage people to have patience with themselves. I know how difficult it is to make changes or take steps forward when we feel off-balance or don't know what is going to happen next. I am dedicated to helping people realize they control their own lives. I believe we know ourselves best, yet sometimes we need a helpful nudge to find the best direction.

"I BELIEVE EVERY CONCERN DESERVES TO BE HEARD AND RESPECTED"

I've learned how communication can help create trust, understanding and the ability to identify individual needs. I am committed to guiding people with respect and care to help people find resources that suit them best. I believe when we can openly share about ourselves without pressure and with knowing that everything is welcome, we are able to take small steps towards lasting change. I know change is not easy, and although we may never feel ready, it’s in taking the first small steps that we begin to uncover our true nature. No problem, thought or feeling is too small. I am dedicated to helping people find makes them truly happy.

I understand how scary and difficult it can be to take time out for yourself and explore your own feelings. Every part of you deserves to feel recognized, accepted and appreciated. I want to assure you that I will help you along the way no matter what life throws at you. With personalized care and creative resources, you can build a life you enjoy. Let’s connect today.
