NEW PATH COUNSELING & WELLNESS, PLLC

Genuine Support and Skills to Help You Grow, Heal, and Take Ownership of Your Life I Therapy to Heal & Empower – Not Just Talk Expert Counseling & EMDR Therapy I’m Lauren Butcher, LCSW-S, a licensed clinical social worker and clinical supervisor with over 25 years of experience supporting individuals and families through trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, executive functioning challenges, and complex family dynamics. I’ve had the privilege of working with a wide variety of clients—including women and neurodivergent individuals—navigating emotional dysregulation, toxic communication, and the overwhelming stress that comes from living in high-conflict environments. I specialize in helping people move through life transitions, burnout, trauma, and the lasting effects of emotionally abusive or narcissistic relationships. I also have deep experience supporting clients through high-conflict divorce, parenting struggles, co-parenting challenges, and the emotional toll these dynamics can take. Whether you’re rebuilding after adversity or feeling stuck in difficult relationships, I provide evidence-based, compassionate support to help you find clarity, set boundaries, and reclaim your sense of self. My background allows me to connect deeply with clients and understand the complexity of their lived experiences. I strive to create a space where you feel truly seen and heard. Together, we focus on building real-life tools—like emotional regulation, assertive communication, boundary-setting, stress management, and self-worth. My approach is trauma-informed, EMDR-trained, and rooted in an understanding of how your experiences shape your brain, body, and nervous system. I believe healing starts not with “what’s wrong with you,” but with understanding what’s happened to you—and how we can work together to move forward. You’ll leave therapy not just with insight, but with practical strategies and skills that create meaningful change in your life—long after our sessions end.

Many individuals seek private pay therapy for increased confidentiality, flexibility, and personalized mental health care. Unlike therapy billed through insurance, private pay or self-pay therapy allows clients to access services like trauma therapy, EMDR, anxiety treatment, ADHD support, and help with high-conflict relationships without a formal diagnosis or limitations set by insurance. Clients can often use their HSA (Health Savings Account) or FSA to pay for therapy and may receive superbills to apply toward out-of-network (OON) insurance benefits. This approach ensures privacy, removes barriers to care, and supports customized treatment aligned with individual goals. Whether you're looking for online therapy, individual counseling, or a therapist who offers specialized care, private pay therapy offers freedom, choice, and high-quality support tailored to your needs. Superbills provided for out-of-network insurance reimbursement. If you are unsure of how to submit OON billing, we suggest utilizing Reimbursify.com
