Lara Ngu
MHC-I
Lara grew up in Scotland and earned her BA in the UK. She started her career in public relations where she developed a love for connecting with people and sharing their stories with the world. She has also volunteered for the National Sexual Assault Hotline, which she found to be both incredibly rewarding and humbling. It was during this time that Lara realized she wanted to help and empower people to find healing, contentment, and purpose within their lives.
After over a decade working in public relations, Lara pursued her Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Northwestern University, a program with a strong focus on psychodynamic theory and self-reflection.
