Meet Dr. Stitzel
Lauren Stitzel, Psy.D., offers compassionate care to individuals navigating life's transitions, from women's health issues such as the emotional rollercoaster of infertility, to the complex journey through grief and loss.
Whether facing major life changes, dealing with stress and anxiety, or experiencing an issue rooted in childhood, Dr. Stitzel recognizes there is no “one-size-fits-all” solution. She utilizes various therapeutic models and collaborates with clients to help them achieve their unique goals.
The Silent Struggles of Infertility
While the journey to parenthood may seem natural, the emotional and physical demands can be overwhelming for individuals and couples alike. Drawing from her own experiences, Dr. Stitzel understands the emotional rollercoaster that infertility can present. While physicians focus on physical well-being, addressing mental health is equally important and can significantly boost the chances of a successful pregnancy.
Navigating Grief and Loss
Feelings of isolation, uncertainty and fear are common when dealing with grief and loss. Dr. Stitzel helps clients work through these emotions in a therapeutic setting, enabling them to process trauma and move forward constructively. Understanding that grief can arise from various life experiences, she provides compassionate support to help individuals navigate these challenging times.
