01About Lauren
Lauren Latham is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing from West Virginia with 13 years of clinical experience. She brings a direct, practical approach and focuses on helping people manage relationship strain, grief, self-esteem struggles, and major life changes. She also works with those coping with trauma, ADHD, career stress, and compassion fatigue.
Lauren learned counseling in both the U.S. and the U.K., and holds graduate degrees in clinical mental health and school counseling.
Background and approach
Her background includes work as a bereavement counselor and time as a school counselor, which shaped her interest in grief, family concerns, and attachment issues. This mix of settings informs how she tailors care for individuals. In sessions she prefers plain talk and clear goals.
She uses approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice what matters, change unhelpful thinking patterns, and take small actions that fit their values. She also draws on Attachment-Based and Client-Centered methods to focus on connection and understanding. Her style is collaborative and steady.
Lauren helps people build tools for everyday life - improved communication, better boundaries, and ways to manage mood or impulsivity. She pays attention to the emotional and practical sides of problems.
If someone is unsure where to begin, Lauren aims to make the first steps simple: identify the most pressing concern, outline short-term goals, and try practical strategies that can be adjusted over time.

How Lauren’s Approaches Translate to Online Care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It is useful for grief, life changes, and motivation problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change patterns that keep someone stuck, which can help with anxiety, mood, and impulsivity. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns of connection and trust formed early in life and helps people understand how those patterns show up in current relationships and communication.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Lauren will listen to your goals and preferences, try methods that fit your situation, and adjust the plan based on what helps you make progress. That collaborative process means techniques can shift as needs change.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a deeper connection is needed. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for brief check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to fit support into a busy day, provide ongoing check-ins, and use shorter, focused exchanges between sessions. These options give flexibility so therapy can fit around work, caregiving, or travel.
