Millennial Mama Therapy

01/15/2026

💆🏻‍♀️ Caring for your mental health should integrate into your life (not add more stress).

That's why I intentionally built Millennial Mama Therapy from the ground up FOR parents. Here are just *a few* examples (swipe ➡️)!

In case we haven't met yet, I’m Lauren! I'm the human, mom, and therapist behind Millennial Mama Therapy.

I help parents FEEL GOOD in parenthood—not just survive—by deconstructing society's unhelpful and often toxic expectations so they can discover their unique version of parenthood and THRIVE.

I blend evidence-based therapy, developmental research, somatic tools, humor, and a lot of real-life honesty to create spaces where parents feel deeply understood and practically supported.

I’m especially known for my:

🌸 Grounded, human approach to therapy (I'm a messy human just like you and don't see any reason to pretend otherwise)

🌸 Pink therapy couch + pile of pink dinos (see if you can spot them in my stories!)

🌸 Strong network of referrals and resources (I’m a Connector—it brings me JOY to find the person/service/thing that changes your life for the better)

🌸 Deep belief that thriving is possible—even (and especially) on the messy days.

👋🏻 If you have a moment, say hi in the comments!
Let me know your thoughts or any ideas you have for how I can make my practice even more parent-friendly!

🌿✨ My Heart Is So Full ✨🌿

It took me almost a full week to reflect, soak it all in, and let’s be honest, recover from our grand opening. When you pour your whole heart into something, it hits different when you finally see it come to life. And wow… did it ever.

First off, thank you to every single person who showed up, showed love, or cheered us on from afar. This community is everything. Truly.

Now let me brag on the people who made this magic happen, because credit goes where it’s due:

💛 Deanna Let’s be real… this woman is my left AND right hand. Growing Together would not function without her. She kept everything running smoothly and made the entire day a success. If I could clone her, I would. 👯‍♀️

💛 Lauren from Millennial Mama Therapy She’s been on this wild journey with me from the beginning. I’m so excited for what this coming year brings for both of our businesses. Big things are brewing!

And then the vendors… my goodness, they delivered:

☕️ Morgan + the team at Indulgence Mobile Coffee Co. Listen… they didn’t just bring coffee. They brought an entire experience. Their drinks were unreal, they were the sweetest humans, and their setup was adorable. AND they created the cutest custom photo-booth room with a backdrop and signs. If you’re hosting any type of event, hire them. Don’t think…… just do it.

🎈 The balloon team they partner with Duo Dream Events Their work was perfection. The balloon setup was so stinkin’ cute I wanted to keep it forever. Another 10/10 recommendation.

🧀 Marina from Grazing Gouda
She absolutely outdid herself. That charcuterie table was insane, in the best possible way. People are still talking about it. She always brings the magic, and this time was no different.

🌈 Creative Spirit Learning Center created the sweetest little play area for the kiddos, and oh my gosh… the kids LOVED it. If you’re looking for a school where your child gets to learn, explore, create, and actually enjoy going each day, go tour them. I can say from experience: Raylan absolutely loves it there.

📸 Ashlynn, our incredible photographer
She was everywhere at once (in the best way), capturing every moment, every detail, every bit of heart that went into this day. I cannot wait to go through all the photos, she truly caught the soul of the event. 🫶🏻

To everyone who helped, attended, supported, celebrated, or just sent good energy… thank you from the bottom of my heart. This grand opening was a dream because of all of you.

And trust me, we’re just getting started.
Growing Together has some big things coming, so make sure you’re following along for the journey.

Not sure if I'm the right therapist for you? Take my ✨compatibility quiz✨

✅ You want to actually feel good about yourself as a parent — maybe for the first time ever.

✅ You feel totally betrayed by the version of parenthood you were sold.
Like… when is all that promised “help” gonna show up?!

✅ You’re over the judgment, the noise, the impossible standards, the constant"unprecedented times."
This is not our parents’ parenthood and no one but us seems to see it.

✅ You want to find YOUR version of parenthood — the one where you feel grounded, confident, and (dare I say it) thriving.

✅ You like your therapy with a side of humor.
We can laugh and cry. (Sometimes both at once. I seriously can't believe your in-laws did THAT!!!)

✅ You want a therapist who’s in it with you — millennial mom, two kids, pandemic baby, ADHD... Yup, been there, living that!

✅ You love being connected with new resources + support you didn’t even know you needed (or existed!).
Oral ties, psychotropic meds, body work, pelvic floor PT, OT — I've got your hook ups!

✅ You want a road trip buddy 🚗 not a backseat driver.
We’ll navigate this together — snacks, detours, meltdowns and all.

If you’re nodding along, we’re probably a match. 🫶🏻

Friends, I am so freaking excited to have Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) in my clinical toolbox!

I got trained at the beginning of August and have been piloting this technique with my clients for the past 6ish weeks. I've also had the opportunity to provide ART to several one-off individuals. It is SO COOL watching people tap into their brain's creativity and find the healing they've been craving, and I love how much this modality jives with my approach to therapy. Anyway, if you ever want me to yap your ear off about ART, hit me up! You've been warned 😂

🫟 Welcome to Mama Mess Hall, where the mess of motherhood isn’t just allowed — it’s celebrated! 🫟

Share a win, vent a meltdown, or just listen—whatever you need that day.

Mama Mess Hall is 5 months old and easily in the top 5 coolest things I've ever created in my life.

I love everything Mama Mess Hall has become since she first launched in April! This community is special and it's such an honor to exist in and co-create this community alongside some of the coolest mamas I've ever met 🩷

Know a mama who could use a space like Mama Mess Hall? PLEASE send her this post!! 🫶🏻

P.S. I'm convinced the purple paint splat emoji 🫟 was created for Mama Mess Hall. I didn't even know that emoji even existed until after I started creating the group, and from the beginning I've always envisioned a purple paint splat to represent this beautiful communal space where we embrace the messy!
