About Lauren
Lauren Spencer is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Colorado with six years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, self-esteem, family concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, career matters, and coping with life changes.
She blends talk-based therapy with attention to emotional experience and personal meaning. Sessions focus on understanding how symptoms fit into a person’s life story and on developing practical skills to manage distress. Lauren names attachment patterns, communication problems, and codependency among common themes she helps people notice and address.
Her approach draws from attachment-based work, client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral tools, and emotionally-focused ideas. These methods are used to help people track patterns, shift unhelpful thoughts, and strengthen emotional awareness in close relationships. Jungian ideas and mindfulness practice also inform her perspective on inner meaning and bodily awareness.
Lauren has integrated her background in yoga and spiritual practice into how she frames healing, emphasizing body awareness alongside talk. She describes teaching techniques that relax the body, talking through difficult feelings, and using ritual or reflective practices when appropriate. She also offers coaching-oriented support for people who want practical steps toward life or career goals.
People considering work with Lauren should expect a combination of skills practice and reflective conversation aimed at clearer thinking, steadier emotion, and improved relationship patterns. To begin, follow the site steps to view online therapy options and complete the matching questionnaire.
How sessions work
How Lauren’s approaches translate to online work
Lauren uses attachment-based ideas to help people identify relationship patterns and emotional needs. That work focuses on how early bonds shape current responses and can help with intimacy and communication issues.She also draws on client-centered therapy, which emphasizes listening, reflection, and supporting the person’s own problem solving. That approach helps when someone needs to clarify values or make changes without being told what to do. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is another main tool. CBT targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with practical exercises, which can be useful for anxiety, panic, and mood concerns.
Deciding which approach fits best is part of the early work. Lauren will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and what feels useful in session. This may shift over time as needs change.
The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a weekly routine, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises, attachment-focused conversations, and client-centered reflection to remote formats, and Lauren integrates body-awareness and mindfulness practices into sessions when those methods suit the client.
