Hi, I’m Lauren

and I want to help you break free of the unhealthy relationship patterns in your life and to live the life you dream of.

Most of us exist in an unconscious cycle of behavior, playing the same core wounding out in different ways.

I know so many of you are feeling lost, stuck, overwhelmed, confused, anxious, depressed, fearful, and not sure where to start.

I will teach you how to find and care for the wounded parts of you, make your soul feel safe, and empower you to grow into who you are meant to be.

Every relationship we have is a part of a pattern in some form, weaved together, making us who we are and shaping who we will be.

The reality is that the only way to heal our inner wounding and emotional challenges is through building a safe relationship with ourselves.

It’s time to learn what’s holding you back and begin living the life of your dreams.

Services

Why Me

When you view your life through the lens of attachment, you can uncover patterns that emerge through your life. How we attached to our primary care givers and how we managed our challenging feelings early on in our life are what drive you to repeat the same behaviors in different ways throughout our life.

I help you understand your attachment style and how to use that understanding to better your relationships and your life.

Read More About My Journey

My youth and young adult years were riddled with abuse, neglect, trauma, addiction, unhealthy relationships, and worst of all continuous self-abandonment. I was raised by a family that I truly believe did the best they could with the tools they had. Unfortunately, the tools they had were broken.

Professionally, I started out working in social services and mental health through my 20’s and then made a move into finance. That period I was dedicated to moving up in the corporate world. My success there did not fulfill me the way working in social services and mental health did. Through a course of circumstances, I ended up back in the mental health world.

At this point, in my own life, there were behavioral patterns created by my lack of having any healthy life coping skills, unresolved trauma, continuous unhealthy relationships, lack of boundaries and the inability to trust myself that were greatly affecting my life.

It was time I took a deep plunge into work within myself that literally changed the entire course of my life and finally broke all the cycles and patterns of my life, which were holding me back from living the life I had always wanted.

My life experience, the work I have done on myself and the training that I have had has enabled me to help people heal from the trauma and drama of their past and live their lives to the fullest. I am humbled to be able to help people do this work that has so greatly altered the course of my own life, to share it with others is a true gift.

Experience

I have a reputation of being a strong system of loving support for my clients.

I’ve got the training, education, and experiential knowledge to back up my approaches to coaching in a fresh and modern way.

But most importantly, my clients have achieved the results and are living the lives they designed.

Lauren Trotter is as true and authentic as they come.

She has shown up for my wife and me for the past three years in a way that words can’t describe. She is kind, nurturing and firm on her position so there is never a moment when we are wondering what the next indicated step is or how to make it. She has a way of balancing her messaging so that we both feel heard while at the same time she is gently nudging us to see the other persons perspective. I recommend Lauren Trotter as a coach to anyone who is seeking more out of life. If you want to build a foundation within your relationships of love, kindness and trust but you are needing some guidance on how to do that then I urge you to connect with Lauren. She is an anomaly; one of a kind. Lauren brings light and joy to our lives and she will do the same for you.”
