About Lauren
Lauren Daoust is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Wisconsin. She offers calm, steady support for people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and life transitions. Lauren aims to create a gentle, nonjudgmental space where clients can say what’s hard and start to feel more grounded.
She draws on six years as a therapist and a longer background in hospice and hospital social work to guide practical work in therapy.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on reconnecting people with their strengths and building tools they can use between meetings. Lauren pays attention to both emotional and physical signals and responds with clarity and warmth. Her work includes attention to attachment issues, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, caregiving stress, grief, and chronic illness.
She also helps with sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. Lauren uses approaches that fit each person’s needs rather than sticking to one set method. In early sessions she emphasizes listening and collaboration.
The first meeting is meant to be low-pressure so clients can talk about what matters and decide if they want to continue. Scheduling and session details are arranged to fit each person’s situation. Lauren lives in Wisconsin and works in English.
Her style is warm and straightforward, aimed at helping people get through hard moments and find steady ways to cope and move forward.

Online support
How attachment, ACT, and client-centered work online can help
Attachment-based work focuses on how early and current relationships shape feelings and responses. It helps people understand patterns in closeness, trust, and separation and develop new, healthier ways of relating. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches skills to notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them while clarifying what matters most. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Client-centered therapy creates a respectful, listening space where the client’s experience guides the pace and focus of sessions.Finding the right approach is often part of the work. Lauren will collaborate to choose methods that match a person’s goals, needs, and preferences. That might mean combining attachment ideas with ACT skills and client-centered listening so the plan fits the individual rather than forcing one method.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and practice new ways of relating. Phone sessions can fit into a short break and use less data. Live chat or text-based messaging are helpful for quick check-ins, goal reminders, or for those who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or health challenges.
