About Lauren
Lauren Latham is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in West Virginia with 13 years of experience. She trained and practiced first in the UK and completed a master’s in counseling at West Virginia University. She has worked in school settings and with adults, and lists relationship, family, trauma and abuse, grief, and life changes among her concerns.
Lauren draws on therapies like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people facing decision points and transitions. She also uses attachment-based and client-centered techniques to focus on how relationships shape responses to stress. Motivational Interviewing appears in her toolkit when people want help clarifying goals and building commitment to change.
In sessions she listens for patterns that keep a person stuck, then suggests small, practical steps to test different ways of thinking and acting. She helps people talk through relationship strain, work and career questions, grief after loss, and stress from caregiving or chronic illness. ADHD and compassion fatigue are also noted areas she addresses.
Lauren’s background includes bereavement counseling and several years as a school counselor, followed by a return to adult work. That mix informs a straightforward style that balances practical strategies with attention to emotions and relational histories.
People who are unsure what comes next often work with her to clarify values, make short-term plans, and rehearse conversations or decisions. Before booking, confirm current session formats and scheduling options.
How Lauren Uses Therapeutic Methods Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting controlled by them, then choose actions that align with their values. It can be useful when someone feels adrift after a life change and wants clearer direction for everyday choices.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing different ways of responding, which can help with anxiety, low mood, and decision-making stress.
Lauren will treat choosing an approach as a collaborative task. She listens to what matters to the client, explains options, and tries strategies together to see what fits best. Goals and methods are adjusted as progress and priorities become clearer.
