About Lauren

Lauren Latham is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in West Virginia with 13 years of clinical experience. She trained in the UK and completed graduate studies in counseling at West Virginia University, earning dual masters in Clinical Mental Health and School Counseling.

Background and approach

Over her career she has worked in a range of settings that informed her work with adults facing relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, grief, and life transitions. Lauren blends several therapeutic approaches to shape an individualized plan that fits each client’s needs.

She draws on Internal Family Systems to explore inner parts and relational dynamics, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and increase psychological flexibility, and Attachment-Based methods to address patterns formed in early relationships. Her work also incorporates client-centered and cognitive behavioral techniques when relevant.

Lauren aims to create a respectful, compassionate space where people can build coping skills, address ADHD-related challenges, process loss, and repair family or communication difficulties. Clients who seek practical strategies alongside reflective, strengths-based exploration may find this approach helpful.

Lauren accepts international clients and offers multiple online session formats to accommodate different schedules and preferences.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Lauren commonly uses Internal Family Systems to help clients notice and relate to different inner parts, which can be useful for understanding internal conflicts and patterns that affect relationships and self care. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify their values, accept difficult feelings, and take committed action toward meaningful goals. Attachment-Based Therapy is incorporated when addressing relational patterns rooted in early caregiving, helping clients explore how attachment influences current interactions and emotional responses.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Lauren works with each person to assess goals, preferences, and needs, and then adapts methods so therapy feels relevant and manageable. She emphasizes partnership and flexibility as clients experiment with techniques and track what helps most.

Online therapy with her is offered through multiple formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase accessibility and accommodate busy schedules. These options make it easier to attend regularly, use skills between meetings, and maintain continuity when life circumstances change, while allowing clients and licensed professionals to focus on work that fits their routines.
