LAUREN PINCUS

Lauren Pincus is a licensed social worker with over 15 years of experience providing therapeutic counseling to individuals and families from diverse backgrounds and of all ages. Laurens's initial experience was as a hospital-based social worker managing complex dynamics and participating in a multidisciplinary team in a fast-paced trauma setting. Lauren then transitioned to clinical group practice and since that time she has been providing mostly individual and some family-based therapy.

 

Lauren brings a holistic approach to her treatment with clients in which she incorporates her love and knowledge of the mind-body connection into her work. Lauren has an interactive and gentle style that helps clients explore themselves in a new and open way. Lauren is a certified presence psychotherapist who uses the four dimensions of presence (grounded, spacious, relational, and transcendent) to help clients process trauma by expanding their view of who they are and helping them feel more balanced. Lauren heavily incorporates her experience with IFS and Somatic approaches to help clients develop more compassion for themselves and to heal the trauma that has caused clients to feel stuck and unsuccessful with other models of therapy.

 

Lauren focuses her work with adults above the age of 18 who are navigating difficult life transitions, having relationship issues, need to work through unprocessed trauma (big trauma and little trauma), experiencing negative self-talk, inner conflict, illness, compulsions, substance abuse, hoarding, sexual orientation or gender questioning, depression, and anxiety. Lauren approaches therapy in a very culturally sensitive way and has worked with a diverse group of clients.
