About Lauren

Lauren Sletta is a licensed professional counselor in Oregon with seven years of clinical experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, and LGBT-related issues. She aims to make the first step feel manageable and supportive for someone who is unsure where to start.

Lauren creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can say what they’re thinking and feeling. She listens closely and responds in a straightforward way.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer understanding rather than labels or judgment. Her work draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early bonds shape present relationships and self-view. She also uses client-centered techniques to keep conversations focused on each person’s goals.

Cognitive behavioral tools and skills from dialectical behavior approaches help people change unhelpful thought patterns and manage intense emotions. Lauren often brings motivational interviewing and narrative work into sessions to help people clarify values and reshape stories they tell about themselves. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their needs and pace.

Therapy with Lauren is conversational and goal-oriented. People leave sessions with concrete next steps, whether that means coping skills for anxiety, new ways to navigate relationships, or clearer self-compassion practices.

Online support

Approaches that guide online work

Lauren draws on attachment-based therapy to explore how early relationships influence current patterns in relationships and self-worth; this can help people who struggle with trust, closeness, or recurring relationship conflicts. She also uses client-centered therapy to prioritize each person’s goals and pace, offering a listening, empathetic stance that lets clients lead the conversation. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is used to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which often helps with anxiety and depressive symptoms.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Lauren will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they try methods and adjust the plan as needs change so the work stays practical and relevant.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction when full conversation is helpful. Phone calls can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or for a focused check-in. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, skills practice, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
