Client-Centered Care Online and What to Expect

Lauren works primarily from a client-centered approach, which focuses on listening closely to each person's experience, reflecting their feelings, and supporting them to find their own solutions. This approach helps when someone is dealing with issues like anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, or adjusting to life changes because it highlights the client's strengths and personal goals.

She also emphasizes a strengths-based, collaborative style that encourages practical problem solving and motivation building. This kind of supportive guidance can be useful for clients facing depression, coping difficulties, or struggles with confidence, as it combines empathy with actionable steps tailored to the individual.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process and Lauren works together with clients to identify what fits best - taking into account needs, goals, and personal preferences. That collaborative process allows adjustments over time so therapy stays relevant and effective for each person.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility: sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone conversations, live chat, or ongoing text-based messaging. These options make it easier to access consistent support around work, family commitments, or mobility limitations, while allowing clients to choose the format that feels most comfortable for them.
