About Lauren

Lauren Spencer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado who combines talk therapy with body-centered and spiritual practices. She guides people through stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, self-esteem struggles, grief, career questions, and life changes. Lauren names codependency and attachment issues among areas she addresses. She also helps with trauma and abuse, panic symptoms, body image, and sexuality concerns.

Her approach mixes mind, body, and spirit. Sessions blend relaxation techniques, focused conversation, and ritual work meant to help people notice how symptoms fit into their life story. Lauren aims to teach tools that can be used after therapy ends, such as skills for managing anxiety or improving communication.

Lauren completed her master’s degree at Regis University in 2014 and has worked in private practice since then. She also finished a 200-hour yoga teacher training in 2012, and she draws on that background when she includes body-focused work. Over six years as a clinician, she developed group programs and memberships oriented toward empowerment and self-love.

She frames therapy as a collaborative process and often integrates coaching-style elements for people pursuing life changes or goals. She describes work with clients who wish to strengthen self-worth, address family of origin themes, or shift patterns tied to abandonment and attachment.

Sessions emphasize practical skills, awareness, and ongoing personal growth. Readers should confirm current session options before booking to make sure they match their needs.

How Lauren’s therapeutic approaches translate online

Lauren often draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns affect current connections; this work helps when people want to understand trust, closeness, and codependency patterns. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening carefully and reflecting what the person says so goals come from the client's own priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, when used, targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with concrete exercises to reduce anxiety and mood symptoms.

Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods match a client's goals and preferences. That judgement evolves over a few sessions as the person notices what feels helpful and what does not.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a break. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current options before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to remote work, offering the same conversational, skills-based, and body-aware elements in ways that suit your schedule and needs.
