Hi there! I’m Lauren and I am Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LFMT) in the state of Texas. I received my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Spanish from Pepperdine University (Malibu, CA) , and my Master of Science degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Seattle Pacific University (Seattle, WA). My approach to therapy is a systemic and holistic one, informed by clinical education and training in Systems Therapy. I utilize a variety of theories in my work with clients, as effective therapeutic techniques depend on clients’ particular needs. I have extensive experience utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectal Behavioral Therapy, TF-CBT (trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), Solution Focused Therapy and Systems Therapy techniques. I have extensive experience working with parents, children, adolescents, families, couples, and college-age individuals. My main goal as a therapist is to help empower YOU to be the best version of yourself that you can possibly be!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
