Lauren Singley , LPC

Lauren Singley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with seven years of clinical experience. She focuses on common life stressors like anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and addiction. Lauren aims to make sessions feel warm and interactive so people can speak openly and honestly about what’s going on.

Her background includes work in mental health and addiction settings. She has supported people facing grief, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, career stress, and compassion fatigue. She also helps with issues such as attachment and abandonment, blended family dynamics, and first responder stress.

Lauren uses a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs. That can include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address thinking patterns, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for trauma-related symptoms, and client-centered techniques that focus on the person’s goals. She adapts methods to fit the situation rather than using a single formula.

Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. She works to build trust and increase self-awareness while teaching practical skills for managing strong emotions, cravings, or relationship conflicts. People can expect collaborative planning and clear steps to practice between sessions.

Lauren lists Women’s issues among her areas of focus and also supports clients with LGBT concerns and intimacy-related struggles. She offers counseling in English and practices from Texas, combining lived experience with clinical tools to help people move forward.

How Lauren’s approaches work online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship. The therapist follows the person’s lead, helps clarify goals, and supports growth through empathetic dialogue and reflection.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence emotions. It includes practical exercises and homework to change unhelpful thinking patterns and develop coping strategies for anxiety, depression, and stress.

EMDR is used for trauma-related symptoms and involves structured processing to reduce the intensity of distressing memories and reactions. It is offered when trauma work is a clear focus of treatment.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss options, try methods that fit the client’s needs and adjust the plan together. Clients help set goals and choose what feels most helpful as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face work similar to in-person meetings. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging support shorter check-ins and ongoing support between scheduled meetings. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep continuity when travel or scheduling changes occur.
