Individual Counseling

Soar to New Heights

Therapy For Individuals

Lauren Mosback Counseling treats all ages of young people, ranging from young children to young adults.

Children

Children are invited to share their concerns in a safe and fun environment where they engage in discussion and therapeutic play.

Lauren often uses Play Therapy, a structured, theoretically based counseling approach. With Play Therapy techniques, Lauren helps children express what is troubling them when they might not have the verbal language to express their thoughts and feelings.

While providing individualized attention, Lauren uses therapeutic toys, games, stories and art to help children meet their social, emotional or behavioral goals.

Lauren communicates regularly with parents and caretakers to help keep them informed of treatment goals and progress. She finds that families heal faster when there is a collaborative effort and when skills and strategies are transferred from the therapist to the family.
