The Trauma Informed Counseling Center was founded with a deep commitment to healing, equity, and high-quality trauma-informed care. What began as the vision of Dr. Lauren Downey has grown into a thriving, Black-woman-owned therapy practice with a multidisciplinary team of clinicians, the majority of whom are providers of color. Our growth reflects both the increasing need for accessible mental health services and our dedication to meeting that need with culturally responsive, compassionate care.

​

At TICC, we specialize in supporting individuals, families, and communities as they navigate trauma, life transitions, and mental health challenges that impact daily functioning, relationships, and overall well-being. Our team is trained across a range of evidence-based, trauma-informed modalities and approaches, allowing us to treat a wide variety of concerns, including—but not limited to—trauma, anxiety, depression, and stress-related disorders.

​

While our practice has expanded, our core values remain the same. We are grounded in humanistic, strength-based care that honors each client’s lived experiences, identities, and inherent resilience. We believe meaningful change happens when individuals feel seen, supported, and empowered in the therapeutic process.​
