About Laverna

Laverna Soucie is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas who combines clinical training with a long history in medical care to support individuals, couples, and families. She holds a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Therapy with a certificate in Trauma Therapy, and she brings experience working with couples, families, college students, and children aged eight through the teen years. Her clinical work includes premarital counseling, marriage and sex therapy, and individual therapy for concerns such as anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, adoption-related issues, and adjustment disorders.

Laverna approaches healing from a holistic, systems-oriented perspective, recognizing how physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual factors interact in a person’s life. She favors emotionally focused and narrative methods while also integrating cognitive behavioral strategies, acceptance and commitment ideas, and family systems thinking to meet each client’s unique needs. She has received training in EMDR and applies it especially when addressing traumatic memories.

Before entering full-time therapy practice, Laverna worked as a registered nurse for 20 years, earning a Bachelor of Science from Baylor University and spending 13 years in hospice care. That medical and end-of-life experience informs her grief work and shapes a compassionate, practical approach to treatment. She invites people to share their stories and collaborates with them to build meaningful change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people and partners explore and shift the patterns of interaction and emotions that underlie relationship distress. It focuses on identifying emotional responses and creating stronger bonds through new ways of connecting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical approach that examines links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, offering tools to manage anxiety, depression, and everyday stress by changing unhelpful thinking and habits. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that helps process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity, and it can be applied to a range of trauma-related concerns.

Laverna treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She works with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and histories, then combines or adapts methods so the plan fits each person’s needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all model. This partnership helps clients feel engaged in decisions about their care.

Online therapy with Laverna offers practical flexibility - sessions can happen via video calls, by phone, through live chat, or with text-based messaging. Those options make it easier to schedule regular work around busy lives, access support from different locations, and continue care in ways that suit each client’s routine and comfort level.
