Meet the Founder of LEL Therapy

I’m Lauren Larkin, Licensed Therapist and founder of LEL Therapy. I specialize in treating trauma, eating disorders, anxiety, and relational challenges. But I’m also a real person, living and breathing NYC life alongside you.

With a master’s degree in mental health and wellness from NYU and a past life in PR and entertainment, I bring something different to the therapy room: humanity. Humor. Hustle. I believe therapy should feel both grounded and transformational. At LEL Therapy, we do just that.

But my work extends beyond the therapy room. As the face behind @leltherapy, I’ve built a digital community of over 160K followers across Instagram and TikTok—offering honest, accessible, and deeply human mental health content to millions.

    Client at LEL Therapy

The city never stops. But you can pause.

Therapy is your space to stop performing, slow down, and reconnect with yourself. You don’t have to earn rest. You just have to give yourself permission.
