Background and approach
Lauren aims to help clients build motivation and confidence as they work toward change. Her background includes work with people navigating drug and alcohol addiction, relapse prevention, and issues that arise after childbirth. She has also supported clients dealing with communication problems, codependency, and questions about life purpose.
These experiences shape a practical approach to problem solving. Lauren draws on several therapy styles to match a person’s needs. She commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking, motivational interviewing to strengthen readiness for change, and mindfulness to reduce overwhelming feelings.
Together these methods help with everyday stress, anger, and major life transitions. Clients can expect a respectful and flexible conversation where the therapist tailors the plan to each person. Lauren encourages small, manageable steps and provides resources along the way.
She practices in Florida and conducts sessions in English.
How Lauren’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and adapting to what matters most to the person. In practice this means starting sessions by asking about immediate concerns and shaping the agenda around the client’s priorities. It helps when someone needs support that fits their pace and values.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Sessions include simple exercises to try between meetings, such as tracking thoughts or testing small behavior changes. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, low mood, and stress-related difficulties.
Finding the right approach happens together. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what is most helpful. That collaborative process makes it easier to try different tools and keep what works.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text messaging work well for short updates, follow-ups, or when someone prefers written communication. These options offer flexibility for scheduling and fit into busy lives.
