Your Safe Space for Healing and Growth

Hi, I’m Dr. Lauren Bartholomew
I understand that the decision to go no contact with family members is a deeply personal one, often marked by complex emotions and a range of experiences. As a licensed psychologist experienced in supporting individuals in these situations, I am dedicated to providing a compassionate and non-judgmental environment where you can freely express yourself. With empathy as my guiding light, I acknowledge the deep emotional toll such choices can take and provides a safe space for individuals to explore and articulate their feelings without judgment.
