you don’t have to carry this alone.

Based in Lexington, Kentucky, services are offered virtually throughout the state.

this isn’t about fixing them

Hello! Nice to meet you! I’m Lauren Holder! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.

I work with women who are struggling with unhealthy relationship dynamics. Whether it’s codependency, dysfunctional family dynamics or loving someone with addiction issues. I will help you find healing, stability and peace despite your struggles.

This is not therapy for them.
It’s for you.

You may have spent years trying to fix, manage, or support someone else. Over time, this can lead to anxiety, burnout, resentment, and loss of self.

Together, we’ll help you step out of that role, understand the patterns that keep you stuck, and begin responding in a way that protects your stability and well-being.

Emotional Stability

This work is grounded in evidence-based approaches including CBT, DBT, and trauma-informed care.
