About Lauren

Lauren Blount is a licensed counselor who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, self-esteem, and life transitions. She brings a whole-person perspective to therapy, inviting clients to explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors while honoring each person's unique strengths.

Background and approach

Lauren draws on client-centered listening alongside structured strategies to address emotional pain and build practical coping skills. Her practice blends evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with mindfulness and skills-based techniques to support change.

Lauren creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can articulate goals and work toward greater motivation, confidence, and emotional balance. With three years of professional experience and licensure as an LPC and LMHC in the region, she offers collaborative support for those seeking clearer direction and improved well-being.

Approaches and Online Care for Practical Change

Lauren uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop concrete skills for easing anxiety and improving mood. CBT emphasizes practical exercises and goal-focused work that can translate well into online sessions.

She also draws from Client-Centered Therapy, which prioritizes empathetic listening and a collaborative relationship so clients feel heard while exploring values and goals. Additionally, Dialectical Behavior Therapy components can be used to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills useful for intense emotions or impulsivity.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is part of the process; the therapist will work together with each person to match techniques to their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative stance allows methods to be adapted over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into a busy life or for those who prefer remote care. These options support consistent access to licensed professionals and allow for different communication styles while maintaining a focus on skill building and emotional growth.
