Lauren Smith

You deserve to thrive, not just survive. Your brain can heal, just like how muscles recover after a workout. _________________________________________ When collaborating with clients on their therapy goals, I see through lenses of trauma, relational connections to others, and how the brain and body work together in order to consider all factors and systems that make up a person and their experience. I integrate evidence-based, trauma-informed approaches that make tangible, transformational change. I am trained in EMDR & am IFS Informed. I also integrate relational styles, self-compassion, mindfulness, & boundary skills. All of these approaches do not require you to re-tell the details of hurtful experiences. My own grief and therapy journey, as well as eight years of allied work with trafficking survivors through non-profit service led me here. It is an honor to witness your journey as we work towards healing together. _________________________________________ I am in-network for the St. Luke's Plans of the following insurances: Mountain Health CO-OP Link, PacificSource Navigator, SelectHealth, & St. Luke's Health Plan. I am in the process of paneling with Regence, Aetna, and Blue Cross of Idaho. Discounted self-pay rates are available upon inquiry. Estimated time of being able to bill Regence, Aetna, & Blue Cross insurances is the end of January 2024. In the meantime, I am happy to offer superbills for Out-of-Network benefits and discounted self-pay rates the day of service. I offer limited spots with a discounted rate for human trafficking survivors and public servants (military, first responders, teachers, and non-profit workers). _________________________________________ Please schedule a free introductory call to see if we'd be a good fit. Finding a therapist that is your right fit is so important. I believe in authentic, human interaction in therapy.
