How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Lauren often uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and to practice different, more useful responses. CBT can be helpful for mood issues, anxiety, and situations where concrete skill practice is useful.

She also uses acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), which focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings, clarifying values, and taking committed steps toward a meaningful life. ACT can be useful when someone is wrestling with distressing emotions or major life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit your situation. That collaborative process helps shape what techniques are used and how sessions are paced.

Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel, or choose a quieter check-in that does not require being on camera. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and communication to suit the technology you use and the time you have available.
