Our Founder
​
I am Lauren Ashley, and I've recently begun creating a platform to raise mental health awareness and support those who feel alone or unheard. Kokoropsyche is becoming the ultimate online resource for mental health guidance and tools, and I'm so excited and grateful that you've found us.
​
Born and raised in Houston, Texas I've always had a passion for science, communication, and storytelling. As a teenager, I began to notice the different impacts and challenges present in my life and how they centered around mental health. It didn't take long for me to realize that Psychology was my passion. I graduated with a dedicated plan and the greatest confidence to embark on a commitment to mental health. With the initial hopes of becoming a Psychologist, I immediately went on to earn a Bachelor's of Science in Psychology at the University of Texas at Tyler. I then went on to pursue my Master's, but this time a shift within me occurred. Although my passion for mental health remained, the road I chose to embark on no longer aligned. I no longer felt that I needed to own the label of Psychologist to feel validated in my life plan and soul mission. One year later, Kokoropsyche was born.
​
My goal is to foster worldwide conversations in local communities regarding the importance of awareness and the strength it brings. We are actively spreading our name and making our presence known to whoever will listen.
​
I am honored to have been brave enough to take a piece of my heart and soul, and then physically manifest it into Kokoropsyche to share with you. This world needs all of the guidance, love, and light it can get. Since I was a little girl, I always envisioned myself facilitating healing in others. I didn't necessarily know how, but I had faith that I would figure it out. I had faith that what was meant for me would be mine. We are all capable of finding what is ours. We are all capable of contributing love and light to this world, so I say let's do it together!

Thank you for visiting Kokoropsyche. 💖
