About Lauren
Lauren Del Angel is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas. She brings five years of counseling experience and a master's degree in Counseling from Loyola Marymount University to her work. Lauren approaches therapy with warmth and directness, offering practical tools and clear plans so people can start making changes between sessions.
Lauren spent two years in the Peace Corps working closely with families in a small community. That time shaped how she meets people where they are and taught her humility in the helping role. She has also worked with people who have faced significant trauma, those recovering from PTSD, and individuals who have experienced suicidal thoughts.
Clients often come with anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, or the stress of life changes. Lauren uses a mix of strategies to help, including Motivational Interviewing, cognitive behavioral approaches, and mindfulness techniques. She focuses on helping people gain insight and then turning that insight into actionable steps.
Sessions aim to be collaborative and goal-oriented. Lauren will listen, reflect, and offer concrete tools when helpful. She may challenge unhelpful patterns and supports clients in building plans for what comes after each appointment.
Her work also covers relationship and family concerns, addiction and impulse issues, eating and sleeping problems, caregiver stress, and other everyday struggles. Lauren wants clients to feel understood, validated, and able to speak honestly in the counseling relationship.

How her approaches translate to online work
Motivational Interviewing helps people identify their own reasons for change and build motivation step by step. It is useful when someone feels stuck or uncertain about making a change in behavior or habits.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical skills for spotting unhelpful thinking and trying different behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, or distress.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, brings skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships. It offers concrete tools for distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and clearer communication.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lauren will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then help choose or blend methods that fit. This is a collaborative process where the plan can change as progress is made.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific session formats before booking since options are not listed on the profile. Many people find online work convenient for fitting therapy into a busy life, reducing travel time, and maintaining continuity of care during life changes. Some formats also let sessions be shorter check-ins or audio-only when needed, which can help fit a break at work or when bandwidth is limited. -
