About Lauren
Lauren Fehlberg is an AASW social worker with 13 years' experience helping people cope with stress, anxiety, grief and parenting challenges. She aims to make therapy straightforward and practical so people can use changes right away. Lauren keeps conversations clear and compassionate to help clients feel understood and move forward.
Lauren uses approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to guide sessions. She focuses on what matters to each person and builds steps that fit day-to-day life. Sessions often involve practising new ways of thinking and noticing how habits affect feelings.
Her work covers depression, eating concerns, self-esteem and coping with life changes. She also helps with issues such as attachment difficulties, body image and caregiver stress. Lauren pays attention to how relationships and past experiences shape current struggles.
Many sessions include mindfulness practices and skills drawn from Dialectical Behaviour Therapy to manage intense emotions and panic. Motivational Interviewing can be used when people want support making changes. The emphasis is on simple tools people can try between sessions.
Lauren writes practical plans with clear steps and realistic goals. She encourages people to bring small examples from their week so therapy stays relevant. If you want steady support through a hard period, Lauren offers calm, direct guidance to help you build resilience and clearer choices.
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and finding purpose when life feels confusing. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and teaches practical steps to reduce anxiety, depression and panic attacks. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people change how they relate to others and themselves.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, and choose or blend methods to suit those needs. This is a collaborative process where plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow quieter check-ins that do not require long travel, and support practising skills in everyday settings. Approaches like ACT and CBT adapt well to conversation, worksheets and short between-session exercises, which are easy to use in online appointments with an appropriately registered therapist.
