She uses straightforward, practical conversations to help people manage symptoms and make changes that matter in daily life.

Background and approach
Those experiences shaped a flexible approach that adapts to each person's situation. In sessions she blends acceptance and commitment work with cognitive and behavioral tools. She also draws on mindfulness and dialectical skills to help people tolerate strong emotions.
The focus is on small, realistic steps clients can try between meetings. Lauren helps people address grief, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting stress, and complications from chronic illness. She also supports those coping with bipolar symptoms, depression, addictions, anger, and ADHD-related challenges.
Conversations include practical strategies for communication, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Her style is warm and direct. She aims to create a calm space where people can talk through difficult experiences, learn new skills, and build habits that fit real life.
To begin, she works with each person to set clear, achievable goals and track progress over time.
Therapeutic approaches that translate well to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then take small actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and life changes where avoidance gets in the way.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with real-life experiments. That approach works well for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related routines, and problems with mood or behavior.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers clear skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and effective communication. It is helpful when feelings feel overwhelming and for improving interactions with others.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your needs, adjusting plans based on what helps. Decisions are collaborative and tested step by step.
Online sessions can make therapy easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls let you see facial cues and practice skills in real time. Phone sessions are a good option when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to use video. Live chat and text-based messaging offer brief check-ins, coaching between sessions, and a way to keep momentum on hard days. These options give flexibility while keeping the focus on practical change.
