Hi, my name is Lauren Poole, and I am a graduate clinician from Lagrange College. I enjoy using an integrative approach to counseling that involves the use of person-centered and cognitive behavioral therapy techniques to help individuals dealing with grief, anxiety, and depression. I am excited to be working with The Veal Group while I am finishing my program, and I cannot wait to meet all of you! 

 

My favorite food would be any and all things seafood. I absolutely love the beach, Georgia Bulldogs football, and reading a good book. I am currently obsessed with suspense novels, specifically all of Frieda McFadden's books.

 

If I had to give one piece of advice, it would be to give yourself grace. We are all living life for the first time, which means that we may not always have the best answer or know what to do. That is okay. As long as you are willing to not be too hard on yourself or others, learn from your mistakes, and keep showing up, there is nothing that you cannot do.
