Lauren Ziel, LCSW

My primary function as a therapist is to provide space for you to cultivate self-exploration & understanding. Whether you're ready to heal from past experiences that hold you back or are seeking more growth/satisfaction in your life, I’ll work with you to develop treatment goals to suit your specific needs. I also believe in an integrative approach to mental health & therefore approach therapy from a holistic perspective wherein mind & body are seen as inextricably linked. If desired, we can incorporate body-based practices within the talk therapy space to aid in building a stronger connection to self & increase life satisfaction.
I specialize in life-stage transitions, depression, anxiety, OCD, and eating disorders.

I practice through a relational and psychodynamic perspective; these frameworks function on the idea that our attachment to one another and our unconscious are major drives underlying our behavior. That being said, I specialize in a holistic approach to psychotherapy tailored to the individual needs and goals of my clients.
For those seeking a more directive and behavioral approach, I also offer holistic health & life coaching. Please feel free to call or email to find out more about 1-on-1 coaching.
