   About Lauren

   Lauren Spencer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado. She combines talk therapy with body-aware practices to help people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns. Her work aims to teach practical skills so people feel more grounded and confident as they move through life changes.

   Lauren describes therapy as a chance to understand how symptoms fit into a person’s life story. Sessions blend calming body techniques, focused conversation, and reflective ritual. The goal is to introduce tools that reduce distress and can be used long after formal sessions end.

   She brings six years of professional counseling experience and a background that includes yoga teaching and spiritual practice. Those influences show up as attention to breathing, body awareness, and meaning alongside more traditional talk work. Lauren also uses Motivational Interviewing to support people who want to make changes but feel stuck or uncertain.

   Her practice covers a wide range of concerns such as coping with life changes, career stress, self-esteem and body image, attachment and abandonment issues, panic and social anxiety, trauma and sexual assault, codependency, and communication problems. She also supports people working through family of origin issues and fatherhood concerns.

   Lauren describes her role as both therapist and coach for people who want to move toward clearer goals. She offers straightforward, compassionate sessions that aim to leave people with concrete skills and a stronger sense of self.

2. How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

   Many of Lauren's methods adapt well to remote sessions because they focus on conversation, motivation, and body awareness rather than only on in-person activities. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-focused way of talking that helps people resolve mixed feelings about change and build motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people notice and shift those patterns in relationships. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a nonjudgmental, empathetic relationship where the client’s goals lead the work.
   
   Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Lauren works together with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean starting with conversational work to build momentum, then adding body-focused tools or attachment-focused reflection as needed.
   
   The practical benefit of online sessions is being able to fit therapy into a busy life. Online work can make it easier to schedule sessions around work, school, or caregiving. Because the original biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current options before booking. A therapist can explain which formats they offer and help find arrangements that suit your daily routine.
