She works primarily with children, teens, young adults, and adults, assisting and supporting them with anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, low self-esteem, peer relationships, family conflict, disordered eating, school issues, sports-related stressors, and sports performance. Lauren is also passionate about assisting parents with how to support their children and utilizing family work where necessary to bring families closer together.
In her personal life, Lauren is passionate about exercise, fitness, and the mind-body connection. She was a competitive dancer for 15 years. She can relate to the pressures of competitive sports and activities and the importance of caring for your body, mind and soul to be the best you can be and enjoy these interests.
Today, you can find her in the gym 3-4 times a week, training for running races and exploring new ways to challenge herself physically and mentally. She is a proud sponsor of the Burlington Centaurs Rugby Club and enjoys the sense of community in team sports and cheering on her friends and family. She is passionate about creating more awareness, providing education on the relationship between sports and mental health, and encouraging everyone in the community to prioritize their mental health more.
