About Lauren
She takes a collaborative approach, partnering with each person to establish an accessible and nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored openly.

Seeking change can take courage, and she aims to walk alongside clients as they move toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.
Clinically trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy, Lauren adapts these methods to match the needs of individuals facing life transitions, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, sleep difficulties, attention challenges, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue. She also works with issues related to autism, chronic pain and illness, cancer, traumatic brain injury, and other specialized needs. Lauren provides services in English and practices with an emphasis on accessibility and respect for each person’s lived experience.
Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify and adjust unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching practical skills for managing reactions and building healthier routines. Mindfulness Therapy focuses on present-moment awareness and gentle acceptance of experience, which can support stress reduction, coping with chronic health issues, and emotional regulation. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes concrete goals and small, achievable steps toward change, making it useful for motivation, problem-solving, and navigating life transitions.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lauren works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made. The choice of approach is guided by conversation and shared decision-making rather than a fixed prescription.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Sessions can take place via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into busy schedules, accommodate mobility or health limitations, and maintain continuity when in-person visits are difficult. Licensed professionals and therapists can deliver effective, goal-oriented support through these remote options while adapting methods to each person's circumstances and pace.
