01About Lauren
Lauren Sletta is a licensed professional counselor in Oregon with seven years of clinical experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, and LGBTQ-related issues. Lauren aims to create an open space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgment.
Taking a first step toward change can feel hard, and she offers steady support through that process. Her approach is straightforward and practical. She uses client-centered work to follow each person's pace and priorities, and she draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot and shift unhelpful thinking patterns.
Background and approach
Dialectical behavior skills are offered for emotional regulation and coping in high-stress moments. Lauren also pays attention to attachment issues and the ways early relationships shape current patterns. Narrative and motivational strategies help people reframe difficult stories and find the motivation to try new behaviors.
Sessions focus on doable steps rather than abstract theory. Conversations tend to be warm and direct. Expect a mix of listening, gentle feedback, and concrete tools you can practice between sessions.
Lauren supports people who want clearer boundaries, better self-compassion, and relief from persistent worry. Work with Lauren is offered in English and conducted online by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. The therapy subscription can be canceled at any time.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches for online work
Lauren uses client-centered therapy to center each session on the person's goals and pace, creating room for honest talk and collaborative decision making. This approach helps when someone needs a calmer space to sort feelings and choose priorities.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, worry, and patterns that keep problems going. Together these approaches aim to combine understanding with practical steps that can be tried between sessions.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Lauren will work with clients to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she may adapt strategies as progress is made. That way the plan matches what the person actually wants to change.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging are good for quick check-ins or ongoing support, and different formats let people fit care into busy schedules.
