Background and approach
She also earned a bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Spanish from Pepperdine University. Her background shapes a view of problems in context rather than as isolated symptoms. In sessions Lauren uses client-centered methods to follow what matters most to each person.
She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to spot unhelpful thinking and change behaviors. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to teach emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Her work tends to be practical and skills-focused.
Clients can expect clear takeaways and tools to practice between meetings. Lauren pays attention to how relationships, family roles, and life demands affect daily functioning. She addresses a wide range of concerns including grief, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, addiction-related issues, intimacy and self-esteem.
Lauren helps people work through communication problems, attachment and abandonment issues, money stress, and questions about life purpose.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Lauren uses Client-Centered Therapy to put the client's goals and values at the center of work. That means sessions begin by exploring what matters to the person and building from there, which helps with motivation and confidence.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood, ADHD-related struggles with focus and routine, and for shifting patterns that get in the way of daily life.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are another part of her toolkit, with practical practices for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and handling conflict. These skills can be taught and practiced during online sessions.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. Lauren works with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She reviews progress and adjusts methods as needed so the work stays useful.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video helps preserve face-to-face connection, phone can be easier when bandwidth is low, live chat and messaging support brief check-ins or scheduled writing-based work. These options offer flexibility to fit therapy into busy days and changing routines.
