Helping individuals find their way back to themselves—and build lives aligned with their deepest values.

I’m Dr. Lunden, founder of Work + Wellness Collective, LLC. I created this company to help women, households, and organizations navigate the intersection of identity, wellness, work, motherhood, and overall well-being.

With a Master’s and Doctorate in Clinical Psychology and over a decade of experience helping clients and organizations thrive, my professional background shapes how I view growth: as something deeply personal, but also profoundly influenced by our environments, relationships, responsibilities, and the expectations we carry.

After navigating corporate settings and higher education, as well as conducting research on women in the workplace, I became drawn to a question so many women quietly wrestle with: What happens when the environment I’ve worked so hard to enter forces me to sacrifice part of myself to sustain it?

Becoming a mother further deepened this perspective. Our identities, careers, relationships, and responsibilities are all intertwined, making true balance feel elusive — especially when you are constantly caring for everyone around you.

I founded Work + Wellness Collective to offer a holistic approach to thriving. One that recognizes our professional and personal lives do not exist in isolation, and that meaningful change requires both internal clarity and systemic support.

I believe you can be accomplished and still feel disconnected. You can love your family and still want more for yourself. You can build a successful career without hiding parts of who you are to sustain it.
