Lauren Palmer, LPC(She/Her/Hers)

Lauren Palmer, LPC-Associate works with high-functioning adults who feel anxious, emotionally disconnected, or burned out, especially those who appear steady on the outside but are struggling to hold it all together internally. Many of her clients are the dependable ones: the fixers, the achievers, the caretakers. Over time, that role becomes exhausting.

Lauren provides individualized, depth-oriented therapy to help clients get beneath the surface (beyond coping strategies) and into the emotional roots of what’s keeping them stuck. Her approach integrates parts work (Internal Family Systems), EMDR for trauma resolution, and somatic strategies to support nervous system regulation. Sessions are collaborative, flexible, and responsive to each client’s lived experience, whether that means working through childhood wounds, learning to stop overriding emotions, or reconnecting with a sense of agency.

Lauren specializes in working with people who have internalized the belief that they’re “too much” or “not enough” (often both). Her style is warm and direct, grounded in the belief that therapy isn’t about fixing people, but about creating the conditions where change becomes possible.
