Mrs. Lauren F Ordner, LPC, AIS, CAISS
About Me
I specialize in the treatment of trauma related to transportation incidents, including motor vehicle accidents, driving anxiety, and passenger distress. My work integrates EMDR therapy with a deep understanding of how trauma impacts the nervous system, confidence, and daily functioning. In addition to clinical practice, I have contributed to national research through participation in NHTSA’s Crash Injury Study (CISS), giving me unique insight into the real-world impact of motor vehicle crashes and recovery trajectories. I am committed to helping clients regain a sense of safety, control, and independence.
Education & Experience
I am a licensed mental health professional trained in EMDR therapy, with advanced focus on trauma and anxiety disorders. My clinical experience centers on individuals affected by motor vehicle accidents, including teens, new drivers, and adults with driving or passenger-related fears. I have also participated in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s Crash Injury Study (CISS), contributing to multidisciplinary research examining crash dynamics and injury outcomes. This combination of clinical and research experience informs a practical, evidence-based approach to treatment.
