About Lauryn

Lauryn Blanding is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with eight years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and life transitions. Lauryn addresses concerns such as self-esteem, grief, parenting challenges, and intimacy-related issues in straightforward, practical sessions.

Her approach centers on building a collaborative working relationship. She listens to what is most pressing, then helps people set clear goals and small steps they can try between sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) are often used to help clients notice patterns and try new behaviors.

Lauryn also brings elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) when work on emotions and communication is needed. These approaches offer tools for managing strong feelings and improving conversations with significant others. Sessions include skill practice, reflection, and planning concrete next steps.

She has worked with issues tied to family of origin, attachment struggles, caregiver stress, commitment and infidelity problems, and career-related concerns. Lauryn aims to help people reduce isolation and improve connection where possible. She also supports those coping with bipolar mood concerns and impulsivity by focusing on practical strategies.

To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted.

How Lauryn Uses Therapy Approaches Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values; it can be useful for anxiety, avoidance, and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns and trying specific exercises to change them, which often helps with stress and mood concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding and shifting emotional responses in close relationships, making it helpful for intimacy and communication problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the first sessions. Lauryn will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day situation. That collaboration means techniques may be adjusted as progress unfolds.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm available online options before scheduling. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid being on camera if that helps with comfort. Licensed professionals can use skill-building exercises, worksheets, and in-session practice just as they do in person, and Lauryn uses those tools to support changes between meetings.
