I'm Lauren Lockwood, founder of Vera Women's Wellness. As a certified nurse-midwife and women's health nurse practitioner with over 20 years of experience, I've dedicated my career to helping women feel seen and supported through every stage of life. For as long as I can remember, I’ve been drawn to women’s health — to the strength, resilience, and complexity of the female body.

 

Over the past two decades, I’ve had the privilege of supporting women through some of life’s most profound transitions — from the perinatal period to the shifting rhythms of perimenopause and menopause.​I started Vera Women’s Wellness to create the kind of care experience I always wished existed: one that blends evidence-based medicine with integrative, compassionate support. A space where women can share their stories openly, ask questions freely, and receive care that honors their whole selves — body, mind, and spirit.​

 

My philosophy is grounded in a whole-body approach to health. I believe that your hormones, nervous system, nutrition, sleep, and emotional wellbeing are all deeply connected — and that true healing comes from addressing those systems together. Whether we’re talking through lab results, exploring nutrition, adjusting medications, or creating a new self-care routine, my goal is to help you understand what your body is telling you and give you the tools to restore balance naturally.​

 

Each visit is a conversation — not a rushed appointment. I take time to listen, to understand your story, and to look beyond symptoms to the root causes of imbalance. Together, we create a personalized plan designed to help you feel more vibrant, steady, and aligned in your daily life.​ I understand that medicine alone isn’t enough — lasting wellness also requires nourishment, connection, and care that adapts as you do.​

 

At Vera, I’ve built a practice that reflects those values: a space that feels welcoming, modern, and centered on you. Whether you’re navigating hormonal changes, recovering after pregnancy, or simply wanting to feel more in tune with your body, I’m here to partner with you every step of the way. Because your health journey deserves care that listens deeply, honors your individuality, and celebrates the full spectrum of womanhood.
