Do you want to improve your relationships? Would you like greater satisfaction from school? Are you having difficulty sleeping? Are you struggling to cope with changes in your life, to your health, or with a loss? Do you need help with your marriage or partner? Is something missing in your life and you just can’t figure it out? Perhaps you feel the need to understand yourself or your behavior. As a licensed professional counselor, my goal is for you to not only feel better but to gain an awareness that you have the inner strength to overcome obstacles and feel more in control. My private practice, Life in Progress Counseling, provides an environment that is safe, accepting and understanding. Our collaborative discussions will be private, supportive and positive. I am passionate about working with people to address challenging situations in their lives. My areas of expertise include: stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, sleep issues, college counseling, crisis, trauma, life adjustment issues (career, health and education) and psychotic disorders. The main focus of my work is with adult individuals. Settings I have worked at include: college career and counseling centers, private practices, hospital psychology departments, and community organizations. I believe in utilizing holistic approaches that fit the individual needs. I often find a person-centered and solution-focused approach to be beneficial by providing genuineness, acceptance and empathy. Instead of looking solely at problems, we would focus on solutions that you would like see in the future. Some additional techniques I routinely use are cognitive behavioral interventions, meditation, family systems therapy and motivational interviewing. I have worked with a wide range of people during my career, always with the focus of helping individuals to reach their goals. I am committed to providing accepting, effective and personalized care. I would be privileged to assist you in reaching your true potential while helping create skills to cope, manage and overcome life issues.
You're tired of putting yourself out there and not finding your "person". You've tried multiple therapists but just can't seem to connect. And without that connection, opening up and really digging in is hard. So you remain stagnant. You want to feel safe and supported, but also want someone to finally be blunt with you about what may be holding you back--and what may actually HELP. You're tired of merely surviving--you want to FINALLY feel like you are living authentically and truly thriving. You want someone to challenge you to step outside of your comfort zone, but also make this shit a little less scary. I use humor and laughter, openness and authenticity, and most importantly, foul language, to create a safe, explorative environment where we can really dig into what has been holding you back--together. I can be direct and to the point, and sometimes a bit crass and unconventional. But I will also be your strongest advocate and biggest cheerleader. What I love most about what I do is being able to walk alongside someone who is finding their own way, and being able to witness just how resilient our spirits can be. Asking for a little help isn't a sign of failure--it's a sign of courage. And a sign of a badass who refuses to get in their own way. Reach out to see if we may be a good fit! Let's do this! Open Space CCW is a LGBTQIA+ and relationship minority affirming group practice whose mission is to help people move from merely surviving their lives, to truly thriving.

Every day life can be challenging and sometimes hard to navigate on our own. As your advocate and partner, I will actively support you as you learn to work through challenges more effectively, and improve your overall sense of well-being. I am passionate about my work as a therapist and I am deeply committed to helping people make positive changes in their lives. You deserve to be seen, heard, and given a space to authentically express yourself. In therapy, my goal is to provide a warm and safe environment for you to be able to feel comfortable and be your most authentic self.

Together, we will create individualized goals that utilize your strengths and build upon your skills.
Change is so hard, and anxiety, depression and grief often accompany it. Fortunately, so does new growth, new beginnings and healing. I specialize in supporting people who are navigating change and life transitions. I center attachment and relationships and believe they are the foundation of our ability to feel secure in the face of difficulty. I support people through separations, adjustment, family conflict, grief and loss, trauma and racial identity development. As we heal our relationship with self, we show up more fully in relationship with others. My work is an intersection of my earth based spirituality, Buddhist teachings, Western neuroscience, and the belief that we are all here to care for each other in relationship, and in doing so, we can find deep healing and peace. I use an integrative approach that weaves together Mindfulness, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (somatic), Attachment and Relational Therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Expressive Arts practices. I work with diverse populations, and continue to lean into anti-racist, LGBTQ+, and sex positive affirmative practices. This is a space in which I honor your process. Together we will make room for and clarify what needs tending to and help you feel resourced and empowered to move towards healing.

The Center for Advanced Psychotherapy (CAP Clinic), is part of Bellefield Outpatient Behavioral Health Services, UPMC in Oakland. Most cases referred will likely be seen by a trainee under supervision of a psychologist, psychiatrist, or licensed mental health counselor through the CAP clinic. Trainees are either advanced students earning their doctorate in clinical psychology (PhD or PsyD) or medical residents (MDs) who are specializing in psychiatry and receiving specialized psychotherapy training. Video or audio taping of sessions is required in the CAP Clinic for supervision and training purposes. Patients participating in weekly psychotherapy can also be seen for med management services by a Psychiatrist or Psychiatry Resident, if appropriate. Lauren Bylsma, PhD has expertise in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approaches for mood, anxiety, traumatic stress (PTSD), and obsessive-compulsive and related disorders in adults and adolescents. Other providers in our clinic (Holly Swartz, MD and Kelly Wells, MSW, LCSW) have expertise in interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT) and interpersonal and social rhythm therapy (IPSRT) for unipolar and bipolar depression in adults. Some patients may not be a good fit for our clinic, including those with active alcohol or substance abuse issues, active psychosis, uncontrolled mania, high risk for suicide, homicidality or history of aggression, eating disorders, or those not appropriate for an outpatient level of care. Session fees are based on your insurance co-pays but it may be possible to see a trainee who does not bill insurance (i.e., no session fees), depending on trainee availability. We currently have availability with psychology trainees who do not bill (no charge for sessions, any insurance or no insurance is ok). Med management visits are billed to insurance. We currently offer both in-person and Telehealth services.

My therapeutic approach is relational, solution-focused, multiculturally informed, and evidence-based. I believe that cultivating a nurturing, nonjudgmental environment is the foundation for therapeutic outcomes. With a CBT- and DBT- informed approach, my clients utilize therapy to explore long-standing problems, navigate current stressors, and work on more effective ways to manage mental health symptoms. I strive to help my clients build a life that feels meaningful and rewarding, where they feel more at ease and more successful in various areas (and various stages). I specifically have experience working with teens and young adults with mood disorders, depression, anxiety, and self-harm. Currently seeing client through the group practice: PKO Counseling Services
My clients experience sadness and anxiety and adjustment to leaving home and college. Transitions are difficult and they need coaching and mentoring as well as counseling. Meeting new people roommates and classes are major stressors. Students get overwhelmed. Students who I see also worry about managing the social aspects as well.
