We make each decision with intention, because your experience should be the best it can be.

Four Points is a therapist-owned practice. Our relational focus and attention to client care extends beyond the therapy session as we construct systems that support the therapy experience.
​
Processes are thoughtfully designed, from scheduling and insurance to paperwork, to reflect that we care about the entirety of your experience.
​
We also take care of our therapists, because an organization people enjoy being part of means more emotional and mental resources, which allows for deeper, more meaningful connections with clients.

Lauren Stanley, LCSW
Managing Director
Lauren's time as a therapist as well as over a decade in management specific to mental health culminated in her belief that the best care results from simple processes and intentional support for both clients and therapists.
Lauren's clinical work focuses on substance use, grief and aging with an emphasis on existential exploration. She sees a special intersection between being a therapist and managing an organization, and believes remaining dedicated to clinical work allows a level of insight not otherwise possible into the ways business decisions impact therapists and clients. (And she just loves being a therapist.)
In addition to her work as a therapist, the majority of Lauren's career has been spent in leadership, including as clinical director for a statewide organization prior to founding Four Points. She is drawn to these roles due to a passion for empowering therapists to do the work they love in a way that maximizes fulfillment and autonomy. She also enjoys seeing the outcome- the exceptional care therapists empowered in this way are able to provide their clients.
​As Managing Director, Lauren makes people the priority, and believes that when relationships come first, clients and clinicians are happy, systems work well and things (mostly) take care of themselves.

People First Philosophy
Four Points was founded on a legacy of strong and trusting relationships. We hold our relational orientation closely and seek to create space for everyone to thrive, and for our therapists to explore what growth and excellence means for them individually.
Inclusion Promotion
We are brought together by the pain and triumph of the human experience and a desire to assist others along their way.
Our perspectives of pain, empowerment, and what it means to be human may differ, just as our experiences, cultures, and abilities shape the lens through which we see the world.
By sharing with each other, embracing new viewpoints and confronting our biases, we gain the strength of perspective that leads to true greatness and belonging.
Introspective Leadership
We fundamentally believe in a transparent, accountable leadership style in which we challenge our assumptions, accept our limitations, welcome feedback, and speak to our errors.
It is very important that you only do what you love to do... You may have to move into a shabby place to live, but you will totally live. And at the end of your days you will bless your life because you have done what you came here to do.
