Hi, I’m Lauri Lindquist, Ph.D., and I am a licensed psychologist in the state of Washington. I earned my doctorate in Psychology at the University of Montana in Missoula, MT in 2016. My pre-doctoral internship was at a Federally Qualified Health Center in Western Washington, HealthPoint, where I provided Behavioral Health Consultation to patients of all ages, alongside a team of medical professionals. Our focus was increasing access to medical and behavioral health care to historically excluded populations, the majority of whom were impacted by trauma and/or chronic stress. Since then, I have worked in public schools, with high-poverty, highly trauma-impacted populations. I am LGBTQTIA+ allied, and I continually strive to be anti-racist in my life and in my work. I believe that therapy is most effective when therapist and client work together as a team to identify triggers and blind spots, explore patterns, and practice skills. I also believe that relationships, both past and present, are integral to our overall health. I can’t tell you how to live your life, but I can work with you to create a life that feels meaningful to you.
