About Lauren
Lauren Krolick is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in New Jersey. She has worked as a therapist for six years and focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, and life changes.
Her style blends support with gentle challenge. She uses clear, practical steps so clients can try new ways of coping right away. Sessions include noticing unhelpful patterns, learning skills to manage intense emotions, and paying attention to how the body and mind interact.
Lauren draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and mindfulness practices to shape each plan. She adapts techniques to fit the person in front of her rather than using a single fixed method. That can mean working on panic and anxiety symptoms one week and on communication or boundary-setting the next.
Clients come for a range of concerns, including stress, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and relationship difficulties related to family or separation. She also addresses attachment, codependency, caregiver stress, OCD symptoms, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
Sessions are intended to help people build practical skills and greater clarity. Lauren aims to help clients find balance and make changes that last, while respecting where they start on their journey.
How evidence-based techniques translate to online care
Lauren commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness-based techniques in her practice. CBT focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going and teaching practical skills to change them, which can help with anxiety and panic symptoms. Mindfulness-based techniques teach present-moment awareness and simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm.She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills, teaching emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These skills help when emotions feel overwhelming or when patterns of conflict and avoidance repeat in relationships. The therapist works collaboratively to decide which techniques fit a person's goals and comfort level.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will check in about what is helping and what needs adjustment, and tailor techniques to the client's needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process aims to make therapy useful from the first sessions.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, shorten commute time, and allow for brief check-ins when time is limited. It also makes it possible to practice skills in everyday routines and bring real-life situations into discussions without promising any particular format.
