Lauren Kaplan, DNP, PMHNP-BC

Hello and welcome to The Wellness Spiral. Providing you or your child with a safe, supportive, affirming space to go beyond symptom management and explore the root causes of your challenging experiences is an honor. I understand how long it can take to find someone who feels safe enough to be vulnerable with, so I will do my best to give you some sense of who I am and the kind of care I provide.

I believe that healing occurs in the context of supportive relationships with self, with other people, and with aspects of the natural world beyond people. I am passionate about collaborative exploration of these core relationships to help empower youth and adults in creating their own path toward increasing wellness. Coming from a multicultural home, being neurodivergent, and a part of the LGBTQIA2S+ community have given me specific insights into some of the challenges associated with these lived experiences.

My background as a classically trained dancer, massage therapist, and birth doula provide me with a unique approach to somatic therapies and serves as the foundation to my deeply relational approach to care. Upon completing my doctorate, I practiced holistic psychiatry in a non-profit community mental health setting serving children, adolescents, and young adults. Currently, I provide integrative care services in an ever evolving private practice. I look forward to collaborating with you to work through your challenges and discover just how powerful you are.
