Lauren Petrocelli, LCSW

Lauren Petrocelli is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York with eight years of professional experience supporting people through a range of emotional and life challenges. She has extensive experience helping clients manage stress and anxiety, cope with grief and loss, improve motivation and self-esteem, and address symptoms of depression. Her practice places a particular emphasis on working with people who live with disabilities or chronic health conditions, bringing specialized understanding to those coping with medical and accessibility-related concerns.

Lauren approaches therapy collaboratively, partnering with clients to build an open and accessible space where thoughts and feelings can be explored without judgment. She draws on evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness techniques, and solution-focused strategies to tailor practical, strengths-based plans that meet each person's needs. Taking the first step toward a more fulfilling and happier life can require courage, and Lauren aims to provide steady, compassionate support throughout that process.

Her work is informed by a commitment to accessibility, respect, and individualized care, helping clients develop coping skills, clarity, and resilience as they navigate relationships, career pressures, identity concerns, and major life transitions.
