Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Lauren integrates client-centered work with structured skills-based therapies to meet each person's needs. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathic listening and collaboration, creating a supportive environment where clients explore their values, emotions, and goals while the therapist follows the client's lead. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, offering practical tools for managing anxiety, mood concerns, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills, which can be especially useful for intense emotions, relationship difficulties, and coping under pressure.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lauren works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their preferences, challenges, and goals, adjusting strategies over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with licensed professionals offers flexibility in how people connect - via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, access care from different locations within the same state, and maintain continuity of support during life transitions, while still allowing therapists to use the same core therapeutic approaches effectively.
