About Lauren

Lauren Jetton is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who blends cognitive behavioral techniques with client-centered and mindfulness-informed care to help clients navigate a range of concerns.

Background and approach

She focuses on issues such as addictions, trauma and abuse, mood disorders including bipolar and depression, anxiety, grief, and stress, drawing on seven years of clinical experience across diverse settings.

Lauren earned a Master of Arts in Counseling and Guidance from Louisiana Tech University and has provided services in environments that include churches, public schools, correctional facilities, and in-home community settings.

This varied background contributes practical perspective to her work with relationship and family challenges, intimacy and parenting difficulties, anger and self-esteem concerns, career transitions, and coping with life changes. Her approach incorporates evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), client-centered therapy, and mindfulness practices.

Lauren aims to collaborate with each client to build skills, clarify values, and support recovery from issues like compassion fatigue, ADHD, chronic illness-related stress, and other complex presentations. She practices in Louisiana and offers services in English.

Evidence-Informed Therapies Offered Online

Lauren frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying and adjusting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is another approach she employs, emphasizing values-driven action and learning to accept difficult internal experiences rather than avoid them. Client-centered therapy is also part of her practice, offering an empathic, nonjudgmental space where the client's goals guide the pace and focus of sessions.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist works with each client to consider goals, preferences, and life circumstances and may blend techniques from CBT, ACT, and client-centered care to create a plan that fits the client's needs and supports practical skill building.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it possible to continue consistent work on mood, anxiety, trauma recovery, addictions, parenting concerns, and other issues from locations within Louisiana, while maintaining regular contact and progress toward therapeutic goals.
