South Pasadena Therapist Lauren Rodarte, LMFT

Lauren Rodarte, LMFT

EMDR Therapist in

South Pasadena, CA

Hi there! I'm Lauren and I'm passionate about helping adults and teens rediscover joy. My practice focuses primarily on the treatment of anxiety, depression, and trauma, along with building self-esteem, improving relationships, and healing childhood wounds. With over a decade of experience, my therapeutic style is rooted in empathy, warmth, and compassion.

 

From the moment you enter our therapy space, my goal is to create a a comforting environment where you feel valued and validated. My collaborative approach ensures that we work together to address the underlying causes of your challenges, while simultaneously developing practical strategies to navigate daily life. In addition, I'm trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy, a unique therapy approach that goes beyond talk therapy and promotes profound emotional healing. 

​

My personal journey as a Latina daughter, mother, partner, sister, and friend enriches my ability to empathize with your emotions, experiences, and struggles with non-judgmental understanding. Whatever is preventing you from fully enjoying the present moment, know that you no longer have to carry it all on your own. I look forward to meeting you very soon!
