Lauren Taylor
Oklahoma City, OK
I graduated in 2010 with a MA in Art Therapy and Counseling, and received my LPC in February of 2013. While under supervision for my license, I worked at the Community Learning Council which is a non-profit that focuses on working with women and children who have witnessed domestic violence and families that are involved in DHS (the Oklahoma agency that provides child protective services). Currently, I work at Red Rock BHS- Jordan’s Crossing which is a non-profit residential treatment facility for mothers with co-occurring disorders including addiction. I provide group and individual counseling to the women, as well as art therapy. 
What I carry with me from SWC is a person-centered, strengths-based model of treatment that consumers find empowering. Expressive techniques I learned at SWC are an important part of helping the consumers to think and see in new ways as they process their experience and plan for the future.
