Meet Our Therapists
Bloom Counseling & Consulting offers relational, trauma-informed therapy for adults in Pennsylvania. Our clinicians specialize in trauma, anxiety, OCD, and attachment-related concerns. We prioritize safety, connection, and collaboration in every session.
Emily M. Allen, LCSW, CAADC, CCTP
Emily works with adults who want to understand what's happening beneath the surface of their relationships. Many of her clients notice the same patterns again and again: anxiety about where they stand with a partner, trouble setting boundaries, people-pleasing, or shutting down when things get hard. Using an attachment-based approach, Emily helps clients connect these patterns to earlier experiences and turn that insight into small, realistic changes.
As a Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor, Emily works with substance use from both sides. She supports clients who are questioning their own relationship with alcohol or other substances or are in recovery and ready to address what's underneath. She also supports people who love someone struggling with addiction. When past experiences are still shaping the present, Emily uses attachment-focused EMDR to help clients process trauma at a pace that feels safe.
Emily is a good fit for clients who may not have all the answers yet but are ready to look more closely at how they love, relate, and cope.

Lauren Clouser, MSW, LSW
Lauren works with teens, young adults, adults, and couples who know they want something to change and are ready to take an active part in that process. Maybe you already have a sense of what isn’t working, and you’re looking for someone to help you figure out what to do next.
Lauren has a special interest in ADHD and neurodiversity. She helps clients understand how their brains work, let go of the shame that often comes from years of being misunderstood, and build strategies that fit the way they actually think, focus, and feel, rather than forcing approaches that were never designed for them.
Her style is warm, direct, and collaborative. She believes you can feel supported and understood while also being challenged to look honestly at the patterns, behaviors, and beliefs that may be keeping you stuck. Lauren also supports clients working through relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions, and she creates a space where people can show up authentically.
Whether you want to understand yourself through a neurodivergent lens, strengthen your relationship, manage difficult emotions, or break patterns that no longer serve you, Lauren will meet you with compassion and help you move from insight to action.

EVENING AVAILABILITY
Dutch
Dutch is a walk enthusiast, professional nap king, and full-time good boy. His resume includes serving as resident big brother to the many foster dogs who come through his home from local shelters, offering a friendly face and companionship as they settle into new surroundings. He adores kids, considers himself a self-appointed sidekick, and can usually be found wherever the action is. His only known flaw? An ongoing feud with the neighborhood squirrels and rabbits.
