Ripple Effects: Individual, Couple and Family Therapy
Dan Nyirady MS, LMFT
Empowering individuals, couples and families to create meaningful, fulfilling lives through compassionate counseling and support
Meet Dan
For over 25 years I've had the privilege of helping people of all ages create a more meaningful life for themselves. I specialize in supporting adolescents, emerging adults and older adults as they navigate and make changes in their relationships: the relationship with a spouse or partner, the relationship with children, the relationships with extended family or friends, the relationship with loss, trauma, anxiety, depression, substances and most often, the relationship with oneself. Whether we meet online or in person, know that I am committed to creating a space where you can find healing, insight and growth toward the life you prefer.
Meet Lauren
Lauren Taylor earned her undergraduate degree in Social Sciences from Cal State San Marcos and went on to complete her Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy at Alliant International University. She has experience working with a wide range of populations, including individuals navigating anxiety, depression, infidelity, parenting challenges, adolescence, and more.
As a narrative therapist, Lauren believes in the power of story—how we make meaning of our lives and how we can gently re-author the narratives we carry to better align with who we truly are. She also integrates somatic techniques in her work, honoring the mind-body connection as a way to help clients ground themselves in their bodies, the earth, and their present reality.
Lauren is especially passionate about supporting LGBTQIA+ individuals, children, teens, and those impacted by trauma. Her approach is rooted in warmth, compassion, and non-judgment, offering a space where clients can feel safe, seen, and empowered to grow.
