Couples Therapy for staying connected through conflict & change

Lauren approaches therapy with empathy, curiosity, and a deep respect for each client’s individual story. She believes that meaningful healing begins in a space where people feel truly seen, supported, and able to explore their inner worlds without judgment. Her approach is grounded in the belief that even the most overwhelming challenges can serve as powerful opportunities for insight, growth, and self-understanding.

Before becoming a therapist, Lauren worked for several years as a teacher, an experience that deeply informs her work. Her background in education gives her a unique understanding of school-based stress, academic pressure, identity development, and the emotional landscape of children, teens, and young adults. She brings patience, attunement, and a collaborative spirit that helps clients feel safe opening up and exploring the patterns shaping their lives.

Lauren also draws on her lived experience as a former competitive collegiate student-athlete. She understands firsthand the world of performance culture—high expectations, internal pressure, perfectionism, time demands, and the challenge of balancing drive with wellbeing. Many clients who identify as high achievers, helpers, or people who “hold it all together” feel particularly understood by her.

In session, Lauren cultivates a warm, nonjudgmental environment where clients can reflect, deepen self-awareness, and develop tools to navigate life with greater clarity and confidence. She takes an integrative approach, drawing from client-centered, psychodynamic, and trauma-informed frameworks to tailor care to each individual’s needs and goals.

Lauren is especially passionate about supporting clients who are navigating:

anxiety or chronic worry

recurring relationship patterns

people-pleasing or perfectionism

school or work stress

major life transitions or identity shifts

performance pressure (academic, athletic, or professional)

Above all, she is committed to helping clients strengthen their sense of self and create more authentic, connected lives—both internally and in their relationships.

Lauren is a Mental Health Counseling Clinical Intern at AisleTalk and is currently pursuing her Master’s in Mental Health Counseling at Fordham University.

Taylor first joined AisleTalk as a clinical intern and was thrilled to continue her work with the practice as an associate therapist. She brings a warm, curious, and nonjudgmental style to therapy, helping clients explore their experiences, challenges, and aspirations with honesty and self-compassion. Her approach centers collaboration—she believes clients are the experts of their own lives, and her role is to help illuminate patterns, build resilience, and support meaningful emotional growth.

Rooted in a strong multicultural and anti-oppressive lens, Taylor is committed to providing culturally responsive care. As an Asian American woman, she brings a nuanced understanding of how cultural identity, family expectations, and community narratives shape the way clients move through the world. She strives to create a safe, inclusive space for people of all backgrounds, particularly those from marginalized identities who may not have always felt seen or understood.

With a special passion for working with Gen Z, Taylor supports clients navigating anxiety, identity development, relationship stress, perfectionism, school and career transitions, and the pressure to “figure it all out.” She uses an integrative approach, drawing from evidence-based modalities to tailor therapy to each client’s needs. Together, she and her clients explore recurring patterns, strengthen self-awareness, and build the tools needed to move through life and relationships with greater ease and confidence.

Taylor is an associate therapist at AisleTalk and a recent graduate of the Mental Health Counseling program at Teachers College, Columbia University, where she earned her Master of Education in Mental Health Counseling.

Molly approaches therapy with the belief that clients are the experts of their own lives. Her role is to help create a space where insight, curiosity, and growth can naturally unfold, without judgment or pressure to “have it all figured out.” Clients often experience her as calm, grounded, and deeply attentive; someone who listens closely and supports them in making sense of complex thoughts, emotions, and relational patterns.

In addition to her individual and relational work, Molly has a deep appreciation for the power of group therapy and shared connection.
