About Lauren
Lauren Del Angel is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with five years of practice. She trained in counseling through a master’s degree from Loyola Marymount University and brings a patient, down-to-earth presence to sessions. Lauren aims to help people find practical ways forward when life feels stuck or overwhelming.
Her background includes two years in the Peace Corps working with families in a small community. That experience shaped her approach - she emphasizes meeting people where they are and building on existing strengths. She has worked with people facing trauma, post-traumatic stress, suicidal thoughts, deep anxiety, and struggles with self-esteem.
Lauren’s style is active and hands-on. She offers concrete tools and helps clients make a short plan to use between sessions when that pace fits. Clients can expect guidance, encouragement, and occasional direct challenge when needed to move toward goals.
She uses a mix of approaches to fit each person’s needs, including cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical skills, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and existential ideas. Those methods are used to address stress, sleep and rest concerns, mood changes, addictive behaviors, relationship and family strains, and life transitions.
If a warm, honest counseling relationship matters to you, Lauren emphasizes creating a space where people can speak openly without judgment. She focuses on practical change and steady progress toward the goals the client sets.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Lauren commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-based work in sessions. Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or sleep disruption. Mindfulness practices teach simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and improve rest.She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy ideas for emotional regulation and motivational interviewing to support change when motivation feels mixed. DBT-style skills help people manage intense feelings and improve relationships, while motivational interviewing helps clarify goals and resolve uncertainty about change.
Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the process. Lauren works collaboratively to match methods to a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. Clients and therapist review what’s helping and adjust the plan together so sessions stay useful.
The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Before booking, confirm current session options and formats with the service, since session delivery is set through the platform and may vary. Online work can make it easier to maintain regular check-ins, practice skills between meetings, and bring therapy into everyday life in a way that fits routines.
