Hi, I’m Lauren! I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner committed to helping people feel heard, supported, and empowered in their mental health journey. My approach is rooted in empathy and understanding, with a focus on getting to know each person and what matters most to them. I truly value collaboration and believe the best care comes from working together toward goals that are meaningful to you.

I earned a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Miami University then went on to pursue nursing at The Ohio State University where I earned a Master of Science in Nursing in 2024. After graduating, I moved to the Pacific Northwest to begin my career as a PMHNP. I’m happy to be back in the Buckeye State and providing mental health care in this community!

At Align Psychiatry & Wellness, I provide services to individuals ages 6 and up and I’m comfortable treating a wide variety of mental health concerns with personalized treatment plans including medication management and supportive psychotherapy. With my background in both inpatient psychiatry and community mental health, I have experience serving individuals with complex needs. My areas of interest include the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD, Anxiety, OCD, Depression, Mood Disorders, PTSD, Psychosis, and more.

Outside of the office, I enjoy reading, yoga, and spending time with my husband and our English lab.
