Emotion and Mindfulness Approaches for Online Care

Lauren uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and shift patterns in how they react to strong feelings. EFT focuses on connecting emotions to the problems you bring, and it can be helpful for grief, relationship strain, and major life changes. She also draws on client-centered therapy, which emphasizes listening and following your pace so you feel heard and understood.

Mindfulness techniques are part of her work to teach simple ways of noticing thoughts and bodily reactions. These practices help with anxiety, stress, and mood regulation by offering tools you can use during a hard moment. Lauren takes a collaborative approach - she will talk with you about your goals and try different ways of working until you find what fits best.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video works well for deeper conversations and visual cues, phone calls can fit a short break at work or when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can be useful for brief check-ins or tracking progress between appointments. This range of formats helps people fit consistent care into busy lives.
