Lauren E, Office Manager

Lauren joined The Wellness Center’s administrative team in February of 2023. It was like catching lightning in a bottle for her and she quickly found her niche. Here, she has the opportunity to engage with new people and the space to apply her academics, skills, and plethora of hobbies and interests in a way that brings a unique sense of accomplishment and joy to her life.

Graduating from Penn State in 2010, Lauren began a career in mental health care. She spent her time on psychiatric units by night and facilitating therapeutic out-patient groups by day.  Moving to Colorado in 2014 with her husband and dog, they’ve rescued several more dogs, cats, and a bearded dragon along the way. Time flew and by 2020, they were welcoming their second child into their tiny social bubble.

Lauren loves taking road trips to show her kids all the amazing things in the world outside of screens and schedules.  Her time at work is valued as a precious balance to the chaos of life. She approaches it with humility and heart, just as she does with everything that she loves because “the journey is the destination.”
