About Lauren

Lauren Fields is a licensed professional counselor in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship stressors. She uses clear, hands-on strategies to address negative thinking and mood concerns. Conversations in her sessions aim to feel open and nonjudgmental so difficult feelings can be spoken aloud.

Her training includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and she also draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy when helpful. Sessions focus on practical skills, like spotting unhelpful thought patterns and practicing small behavior changes.

Background and approach

She emphasizes communication and relationships as important parts of emotional well-being. Lauren brings eleven years of counseling experience to her work. That background includes study of interpersonal relationships and communication.

She leans toward straightforward tools that people can use between sessions to manage stress or cope with life changes. The approach is collaborative. The therapist listens first, then offers options that match each person’s goals and everyday life.

People who want concrete steps and supportive conversation may find this style easy to follow. Sessions use a variety of formats, including video calls, phone, live chat, and text messaging. Sessions are provided in English and follow Texas licensing regulations.

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Lauren often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns. CBT breaks problems into manageable parts and teaches concrete tools for anxiety, depression, and panic symptoms.

She also draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action even when strong emotions show up. ACT can help with stress, low mood, and navigating life changes.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist listens to each person’s goals and tries options together. Over a few sessions she will suggest approaches that suit the client’s needs and daily life, adjusting as progress is made.

Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. These options make it easier to fit skill practice and check-ins into a busy schedule. Remote sessions let people work on communication, coping strategies, and mood management from home or another convenient place, while still getting regular support from a licensed professional.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
