Lauren is a dual board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. Her background includes family medicine, integrative mental health, ketamine-assisted care, and SPECT neuroimaging. She earned her Master of Science in Nursing at Duke University. Additional training includes the California Institute of Integral Studies certificate in Psychedelic Therapy and Research and MAPS MDMA-assisted therapy training.

Across INLIBRIUM’s six-month program, Lauren contributes screening and clinical review, medication and imaging context, and clinical continuity within her scope. She works in coordination with the program’s care team so material that may affect safety, readiness, or follow-through remains visible from one phase of care to the next. She is present with clients during psychedelic-assisted sessions as part of the coordinated care team, bringing attention to physical and psychiatric factors that may require recognition or response. Before and after sessions, her role helps connect immediate clinical observations with the wider plan of care.

Lauren’s clinical perspective is deliberately integrative but not indiscriminate. She uses assessment, history, and body-based awareness to clarify what deserves attention, while resisting the idea that any one scan, symptom cluster, or intervention can explain the whole person. For clients, that means a steadier clinical thread—one that makes room for complexity without making more of the evidence than it can support.
