Lauren Rineer (she/her)
Trauma Therapist, Clinical Supervisor, & Co-Founder of Story of Things Therapy & Consulting, LLC
Lauren is a Pennsylvania Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in working with LGBTQ+ adults and individuals navigating infertility, IVF, pregnancy loss, and family building. She also supports clients working through anxiety, trauma, relationships, and major life transitions.
Her approach is warm, collaborative, and thoughtfully direct. Lauren believes therapy should be a place where you can show up as your full self—messy thoughts, complicated feelings, dark humor, and all.
As a member of the LGBTQ+ community who built her own family through IVF alongside her wife, Ashlee, Lauren brings both clinical expertise and a deeply personal understanding of the many ways families and identities take shape.
Lauren provides virtual therapy to adults throughout Pennsylvania.
Ashlee Rineer (she/they)
Ashlee is a Pennsylvania Licensed Social Worker and Co-Founder of Story of Things. While she is not currently accepting therapy clients, her work is an essential part of creating the thoughtful, affirming experience behind the practice.
With a background in clinical practice, community health, and program development, Ashlee leads operations, strategy, and the behind-the-scenes systems that help Story of Things feel a little less like a healthcare system and a little more like a place where people belong.
Outside of work, Ashlee and her wife, Lauren, are raising their two daughters, who joined their family through IVF. Their own path to parenthood continues to shape Ashlee’s commitment to creating spaces where LGBTQ+ people and families are genuinely seen, welcomed, and supported.
