Lauren Fields, LPC

Lauren Fields is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas. She helps people who are facing anxiety, depression, relationship stress, low self-esteem, and the strain of life changes. Her work also addresses mood difficulties, panic, addiction-related concerns, and caregiver stress.

Lauren focuses on clear, practical steps you can use between sessions. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), client-centered techniques, and solution-focused strategies. That mix lets her tailor sessions to the person in front of her rather than use a one-size-fits-all plan.

Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. She listens first to understand what matters most, then helps break concerns into manageable pieces. Clients leave with simple tools for coping with panic, managing mood swings, and communicating more effectively.

Her background includes studies in interpersonal relationships and communication. With 11 years of counseling experience, she draws on that foundation to help people sort through difficult choices and repair strained interactions. Lauren emphasizes practical skills for daily life, not jargon or complicated theory.

She encourages honesty and steady progress. Working together, she helps people clarify their values, reduce unhelpful patterns, and practice new ways of responding to stress and conflict.

Therapeutic approaches suited for online work

Lauren commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors; CBT is often used for anxiety, panic, depression, and mood regulation. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on clarifying values and accepting difficult thoughts while taking meaningful action toward life goals. Client-Centered Therapy is part of her approach too, offering empathic listening and support to help people explore feelings and priorities.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. She collaborates with each person to decide which methods match their goals, needs, and daily life. That may mean combining techniques from CBT, ACT, and client-centered work to build a personalized plan that feels manageable.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversations and skill practice, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection and short updates. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, and busy schedules while keeping focus on practical progress.
