About Lauren
Lauren Czachor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with five years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, and related mood concerns. Her practice also focuses on issues such as grief, relationship and intimacy difficulties, eating and anger concerns, and life changes like coping with ADHD or bipolar challenges.
She uses straightforward, skills-based methods in sessions. That includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance. Sessions are practical and action-focused, with an emphasis on building strategies people can try between meetings.
Her background includes work with uniformed professionals such as first responders and military-affiliated clients, and with people facing drug and alcohol addiction and post-traumatic stress. That experience has shaped a focus on concrete coping tools and relapse prevention strategies where appropriate.
Lauren describes therapy as a collaborative process of noticing patterns and testing new responses. She helps people set short-term goals, practice new skills in everyday life, and track what works. Progress is reviewed regularly so plans can be adjusted.
People considering therapy are encouraged to confirm session options and next steps before booking. The practice accepts several payment methods and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How CBT and DBT are used in online sessions
Lauren uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice specific thoughts and behaviors that feed stress and anxiety, then practice tests of new ways to respond. CBT sessions focus on concrete exercises, short behavioral experiments, and tracking progress between meetings.She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy for skills-based training in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT skills can be helpful for managing strong emotions, reducing impulsive behaviors, and improving communication in relationships.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the person to match methods to their goals, preferences, and the problems they bring. Plans are reviewed and adjusted as progress is tracked.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. The focus remains on practicing skills in everyday life and bringing what happens outside sessions back into the work with the therapist.
