About Laurel

Laurel Clement is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 19 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, or trauma find clearer, steadier ground. Her style is warm and practical and aimed at everyday change rather than labels.

Laurel helps clients shore up coping skills for panic, mood swings, and overwhelming stress. She supports people who are rebuilding after loss, relationship conflict, or major life changes. Sessions often focus on skills that can be used between appointments to manage strong emotions and reduce reactivity.

Her approach combines client-centered listening with structured tools drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy. She also incorporates techniques from dialectical behavior therapy and emotionally-focused work when helpful. Those methods are used to improve emotion regulation, communication, and decision making.

Laurel has worked with people facing a wide range of concerns including grief, self-esteem struggles, anger, career uncertainty, and trauma-related issues. She pays attention to how past relationships and family patterns shape current reactions and choices.

In sessions she prioritizes creating a steady, respectful space where clients feel heard. The work is collaborative: goals are set together and progress is tracked with clear steps. Prospective clients in Texas may start by completing the site's matching questionnaire to schedule a first appointment.

How Laurel's Approaches Translate to Online Work

Laurel uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. CBT is practical and goal oriented, often focusing on small experiments and step-by-step behavior changes that reduce anxiety and improve mood.

She also draws on acceptance and commitment therapy, which helps people clarify personal values and build psychological flexibility. ACT combines mindful awareness with committed action to face stressful feelings while moving toward what matters most.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Laurel will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and the challenges they bring, then suggest methods to try together. Adjustments are made as the work progresses so the plan stays useful and realistic.

Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life by reducing travel time, offering shorter check-ins on a workday, or allowing follow-up conversations without rearranging a schedule. Licensed professionals can adapt the pace and tools of CBT and ACT to work well in remote sessions while focusing on skills that can be practiced between meetings.
