Clinical Approaches and Accessible Online Care

Lauren uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and develop practical skills for managing symptoms. CBT is commonly applied to issues such as anxiety, depression, stress, and many forms of problematic coping including some forms of addiction.

She also integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), which emphasizes skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. DBT can be especially helpful for intense emotions, relationship difficulties, and situations where learning concrete coping strategies is a priority.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Lauren works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and personal preferences. That collaboration includes adapting techniques over time as progress and challenges emerge.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility for many clients. Sessions can take place by video calls or phone sessions for face-to-face interaction, and live chat or text-based messaging provides additional options for shorter check-ins or clients who prefer written communication. These formats can make scheduling easier and increase access to consistent support from a licensed professional.
