Lauren Naish Auburn therapist Areas of Clinical Emphasis

As a therapist at Auburn Psychological Wellness Center, I provide individual therapy services to adolescents and young adults. My scope of practice covers a wide variety of concerns, but I have a particular interest in helping clients in the following areas:

  • ADHD and Autism
  • OCD and Anxiety Disorders
  • Life Transitions
  • Academic Concerns
  • Identity Exploration and Self-Esteem

What to Expect If We Work Together

I like to approach therapy with a person-centered, strength-based, trauma-informed lens, while considering the unique backgrounds, cultures, and life experiences of my clients. I believe in the importance of the therapeutic relationship for facilitating growth and collaboration during our time together. A priority of mine is to support clients in developing healthier thought patterns and behaviors through cognitive behavioral techniques, while providing tools to develop coping skills. I am especially passionate about helping manage neurodivergence and navigating the challenges this can bring through psychoeducation, skill-building, and empowerment. I believe self-care is key to promoting mindfulness and reducing stress.

About Me

I am a licensed independent clinical social worker in the state of Alabama (6593C) and a licensed clinical social worker in the state of California (122544). I received my Bachelor’s of Psychology from Auburn University and my Master’s of Social Work from the University of Southern California. In the past, I have worked with adolescents and young adults in a variety of settings, from college campuses, crisis centers, and housing programs, to provide mental health support.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, traveling and exploring, reading, and have recently started using the pottery wheel.
