Lauren Jetton , LPC

Lauren Jetton is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with seven years of clinical experience helping people navigate trauma, addiction, depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder. She earned a Master of Arts in Counseling and Guidance from Louisiana Tech University and has practiced across a range of settings, including church programs, the local school system, correctional facilities, and community-based in-home services.

As an LPC, Lauren holds a professional counseling license that qualifies her to provide therapeutic support and treatment in Louisiana. Her work blends practical skills with a compassionate, client-centered stance, focusing on collaborative goal setting and strategies that support daily functioning and long-term resilience. Lauren brings experience from diverse environments to inform flexible, person-focused care.

She expresses enthusiasm for supporting others on their paths toward greater well-being and draws inspiration from a few guiding sayings, such as "To succeed in life, you need three things: a wishbone, a backbone and a funny bone." -Reba McEntire, "You've always had the power my dear, you just had to learn it yourself." -Glinda, The Wizard of Oz, and "Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life." -Proverbs 4:23 NLT.

Therapeutic Approaches and Virtual Care

Lauren commonly draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which encourages people to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that reflect their personal values - a helpful fit for those facing chronic stress, grief, or patterns of avoidance. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; CBT is effective for anxiety, depression, and many everyday challenges. In addition, Client-Centered Therapy informs her approach by emphasizing empathy, active listening, and meeting each person where they are in order to build trust and self-directed change.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and Lauren works collaboratively with each person to determine what methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they tailor interventions and priorities rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility with options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into busy schedules, manage transportation limitations, or access consistent support from home. Licensed professionals can adapt these formats to deliver focused skills work, emotional support, and problem-solving in ways that suit individual lifestyles and rhythms.
