Rashel Lauret , LMFT

Rashel Lauret is an LMFT (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist) based in North Carolina who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family conflict, parenting challenges, and low self-esteem. She also works with concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, adoption and foster care questions, and feelings of emptiness or shame. Rashel explains things plainly and focuses on practical steps people can use right away.

Her approach is collaborative and straightforward. Sessions focus on identifying patterns that keep problems going and building skills to change them. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral work and mindfulness to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and shift behaviors a bit at a time.

Rashel draws on techniques from dialectical behavior work, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies when they fit a person's goals. That means sessions can include skill practice, goal-setting, and short experiments to test new ways of relating or coping. She encourages small, consistent changes rather than dramatic shifts overnight.

Across nine years of experience she has supported people facing divorce and separation, blended family issues, codependency, communication problems, and parenting stress, including work with Autism and Asperger Syndrome and disruptive mood concerns. Rashel aims to help people use their existing strengths while learning new ways to respond.

People who choose her can expect clear next steps after sessions and suggestions for practice between meetings. She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and working at a pace that feels manageable for each person.

Online approaches that focus on skills and goals

CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors to reduce anxiety and stress. It breaks problems into smaller parts and teaches concrete skills for changing thinking and actions.

DBT, or dialectical behavior therapy, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication. It can help when emotions feel overwhelming or when relationships keep repeating the same conflicts.

Finding the best approach is a shared process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try a few practical methods to see what fits. Together you can adjust techniques over time so the work matches your needs and pace.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets you talk face-to-face, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a brief check-in, and messaging works well for ongoing reminders or short reflections. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and try different ways of connecting until you find what works best.
