Rashel Lauret, LMFT

Rashel Lauret is a licensed therapist practicing in North Carolina with nine years of professional experience. She approaches work with clients from a place of respect, sensitivity, and compassion, helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family conflict, parenting challenges, motivation hurdles, and struggles with self-esteem. Rashel emphasizes that feelings such as loneliness, anger, and sadness are valid and that how those feelings show up in daily life can vary widely from person to person. When left unaddressed, these experiences can interfere with relationships and the ability to stay present in everyday moments.

In session, Rashel partners with clients to build on their existing strengths and develop practical skills that create lasting change. She frames therapeutic work as a collaborative process that combines in-session conversations with tasks between appointments, so progress continues outside of therapy hours. Treatment plans and the tone of dialogue are tailored to each client’s unique needs, goals, and circumstances.

Rashel holds the LMFT credential - a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - and works alongside clients as they learn new ways of relating to themselves and others. She likens the beginning of therapy to starting a new workout routine: it can feel awkward at first but often produces meaningful results when approached with steady effort and support. Clients bring the effort, and Rashel provides guidance and encouragement throughout the journey.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Rashel commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy alongside mindfulness practices to help clients address thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing practical skills to change reactions and behaviors; it is often helpful for anxiety, stress, and low mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills, making it useful for intense emotions and relationship challenges. Mindfulness Therapy encourages gentle attention to the present moment and can support improvements in self-awareness, stress management, and the ability to respond rather than react.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process, and Rashel works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors treatment plans over time, adjusting techniques as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility for people balancing work, family, and other commitments. Rashel provides support through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose the format that feels most manageable. These remote options make it easier to maintain consistent care, try different session styles, and access help from home or another convenient location while working with licensed professionals and therapists.
