About Lauren

Lauren Scupp is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship struggles, and challenges with self-esteem or career direction. Lauren aims to offer straightforward, compassionate support as people take steps toward change.

She keeps sessions collaborative and direct. Conversations focus on what matters most to the client and on practical steps that fit everyday life. Lauren uses approaches that encourage skill-building and clearer thinking so people can manage strong emotions and make different choices.

Background and approach

Her work draws on client-centered principles that prioritize the person’s own goals. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thought patterns and DBT strategies to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are woven in when they help someone strengthen motivation and stay focused on change.

Lauren has four years of professional experience supporting a wide range of concerns, including trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, eating and body image issues, and intimacy-related matters. She also addresses midlife transitions, loneliness, and questions about life purpose. Sessions are offered in English and are delivered through online formats.

People who choose to work with Lauren will find clear communication, practical strategies, and a steady, encouraging presence during the process.

How Lauren’s Approaches Work Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's own goals and values. It means sessions start with what matters most to the client and the therapist follows their lead while offering support and perspective.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and problems that come from repeated thinking or behavior patterns.

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for regulating emotions, handling crises, and improving communication. Those skills can be helpful when strong feelings lead to impulsive actions or relationship strain.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lauren will discuss options with each person and tailor methods to their goals and preferences. The process is collaborative, with choices adjusted as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face interaction for skill practice and deeper conversation. Phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging work well for brief check-ins, practicing skills, or ongoing encouragement between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between meetings.
