About Lauren Cumberbatch
I believe that everyone deserves to heal from their past and live a happy, fulfilling life. As an EMDRIA certified EMDR therapist, I use evidence-based tools to help you process your trauma and move on. I also use Gottman Method Couples Therapy concepts to help you improve your relationships.
I provide compassionate, warm, trauma informed therapy, and I’m here to support you on your journey to healing. I’m confident that we can work together to take your healing to another level.
I grew up in Southern California and have lived in Santa Barbara for over 40 years. I have a sociology degree from the University of California at Santa Barbara, and a master’s degree in counseling psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute, with an emphasis in Jungian/Depth Psychology. In my previous career I worked as a Paralegal, supporting clients during some of the most challenging times of their life, including during litigation, divorce, or death of a loved one.
I enjoy spending time with my family in Santa Barbara, and my hobbies include singing in a folk/acoustic trio and writing poetry. I also enjoy bringing the creative arts aspect into my psychotherapy work with clients.
If you’re ready to start healing, I invite you to connect with me today. I look forward to hearing from you.
