About Lauren
Lauren Stover is an LMSW (Licensed Master Social Worker) based in Michigan with 13 years of clinical experience. She supports adults dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and major life changes, including people navigating blended family issues. Lauren focuses on practical steps that help a person feel steadier and more able to handle daily demands.
She spends sessions looking at how attachment patterns and past hurts shape current relationships. That includes work on abandonment wounds, codependency, control issues, and commitment concerns. Conversations often cover communication skills, setting boundaries, and reducing caregiver strain so clients can function with less overwhelm.
Lauren also helps people who feel isolated, empty, or stuck in guilt and shame. She talks through ways to reconnect with life purpose and healthier routines. When needed she includes coaching-style guidance to turn insights into action and small, manageable goals.
Her style is straightforward and focused on making change that fits real life. She attends to cultural and workplace stresses that affect people's choices and well-being. Clients can expect conversational sessions that move from understanding patterns to practicing different responses.

Approaches and how online sessions work
Lauren uses evidence-based techniques that look at relationship patterns and behaviors. One common approach examines attachment and how early relationships shape current reactions; this helps with trust, closeness, and recurring conflict. Another approach targets unhelpful interaction habits and focuses on communication practice and boundary setting to reduce tension in daily life.Picking the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, current challenges, and personal preferences, then try methods that fit the person's needs. Adjustments are made over time based on what actually helps in day-to-day situations.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday or a busy household, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. These practical benefits help people maintain consistency while they try new ways of relating and coping.
