Meet Lauren Gill, LPC

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania and I work with people just like you and me. Who have had trauma. Who have gone through their own personal hell.

That’s why I wanted to be a therapist. To heal myself since no other therapist could, and believe me, I have seen my fair share. I was the client for years but never saw any change. That’s because my brain and my body were so disconnected and I was living in a trauma response all day, every day.

Work With Me

Clients I work Best with:

I work best with those who notice patterns of self-sabotage, self-doubt, or pulling back when things start to feel good and want to understand why. You may sense that these patterns come from earlier experiences where safety, worth, or consistency were disrupted.

I work from a trauma-informed, EMDR-focused approach, integrating talk therapy, mindfulness, and practical emotion-regulation tools to help you gently uncover where these patterns began and create new ways of relating to yourself and the world. Sessions move at your pace, with an emphasis on safety, compassion, and understanding not what is “wrong” with you, but what you’ve been through.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Pennsylvania. I graduted with my Master of Science in Clinical & Counseling Psychology at Chestnut Hill College.

    I am EMDR trained and actively attend consultations. I also have my Responder certification and psychological first aid. I have had EMDR training in specialized topics of: OCD, Birth Trauma, First Responders, and Substance Use.

  • I primarily work from an EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) framework, using it as the foundation for trauma processing and nervous system healing. I integrate elements of CBT, mindfulness, Gestalt therapy, DBT skills for emotion regulation, and a person-centered approach to support insight, coping, and day-to-day functioning. When working with OCD, I incorporate Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) strategies in a flexible, compassionate way tailored to each person’s needs.

  • Because I understand firsthand what it’s like to be in therapy for years and still feel stuck. I know what it’s like when insight alone isn’t enough because your brain and body are disconnected and you’re living in a trauma response day after day.

    My work is rooted in helping you bridge that gap through trauma-informed, body-aware approaches like EMDR, alongside practical tools that create real, felt change. I don’t just help you talk about what happened. I help your nervous system learn that it’s safe now.
