About
Lauren Mirkin, MD, LCPC, brings 15 years of clinical practice to her work with adults, adolescents, couples, and families. She focuses on the full spectrum of eating disorders as well as mood and anxiety concerns, relationship and family difficulties, significant stress, ADHD, and challenges related to chronic health. Her approach integrates clinical nutrition and health coaching with psychotherapy training to address eating and food-related issues alongside emotional and behavioral patterns.
As a clinical nutritionist trained in integrative nutrition and a health and wellness coach, she emphasizes a whole person, strengths-based perspective. She also has substantial training in mindfulness, cognitive behavioral techniques, Motivational Interviewing, self-hypnosis, and personality type work. These tools support practical strategies for coping with life changes, improving sleep and self-esteem, resolving intimacy and attachment issues, and addressing career or parenting concerns.
Clients seeking help with anger, body image, codependency, family of origin issues, or midlife transitions will find a clinician who combines nutritional insight, coaching skills, and psychotherapy training to tailor sessions to each person, couple, or family.

Remote sessions using mindfulness, CBT, and coaching
Lauren Mirkin adapts her integrative background to online formats, blending psychotherapy-informed methods with nutrition and coaching perspectives. In remote work she draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and on mindfulness practices to build present-moment awareness and emotional regulation. These approaches are explained in accessible terms and arranged collaboratively so the participant understands the plan for each session.Motivational Interviewing is used alongside coaching skills to help people find internal motivation for change, particularly around eating behaviors, health goals, or lifestyle shifts. Self-hypnosis and personality type work may be introduced as optional tools when relevant to the presenting concerns. Lauren aims to match strategies to each person, couple, or family rather than using a one-size-fits-all format.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose the communication style that best fits their needs while working together on treatment goals.
