About Lauren

Lauren Greeley is a licensed clinical social worker in California with 18 years of professional social work experience. She holds an LCSW, which stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker and indicates advanced training in clinical social work and psychotherapy. Lauren has worked with people facing stress, anxiety, and depression and applies a respectful, sensitive, and compassionate approach to care.

She personalizes conversations and treatment plans to address each person’s specific needs and circumstances, aiming to meet clients where they are. Lauren recognizes that beginning therapy can take courage and honors the effort required to reach out for support. Her style centers on listening carefully, responding with empathy, and collaborating with clients to find practical ways forward.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Lauren often draws on client-centered therapy, which focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the client’s goals and perspective guide the work. This approach helps people explore feelings, build self-understanding, and strengthen their own problem-solving. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors; CBT is practical for addressing anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching concrete skills for coping and change. In addition, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful for managing intense emotions and improving relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lauren collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress and priorities evolve. That collaborative stance helps clients feel involved and understood.

Online therapy with Lauren is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into daily life. These options provide flexibility for scheduling, allow ongoing contact between sessions when appropriate, and make therapy accessible from different locations while maintaining work with licensed professionals and therapists.
