About Lauren Cumberbatch

Imagine a life free from the burdens of the past, filled with happiness and purpose. As an EMDRIA-certified EMDR therapist, I provide evidence-based, trauma-informed therapy designed to help you achieve this healing at a pace that feels right for you. EMDR can be a powerful tool for overcoming trauma, reducing anxiety and depression, and challenging the negative self-beliefs that may be holding you back.

For individuals and couples seeking stronger connections, I integrate the insights of the Gottman Method and attachment theory to foster deeper understanding and healthier relationships. My therapy is grounded in compassion, warmth, and a deep understanding of trauma. I am dedicated to supporting you as you navigate your path toward healing and growth.

With deep roots in Southern California and over four decades in Santa Barbara, I bring a wealth of personal and professional experience. My academic background includes a BA from UCSB and an MA in Counseling Psychology with a Jungian/Depth focus from Pacifica Graduate Institute. My passion for family, singing, and poetry enriches my life and often informs my creative approach to therapy.

If you’re ready to take the first step towards a more healed and fulfilling life, I encourage you to contact me today. I look forward to connecting with you.
