Laurel Clement, LPC

Laurel Clement is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. She focuses on practical skills people can use right away. Sessions aim to make daily life feel more manageable and to restore a sense of direction.

Laurel draws on a few clear approaches to guide work together. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to link thoughts, feelings, and actions, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to clarify values and build committed action. Client-centered methods shape sessions so the person feels heard and respected.

Her work often centers on problems such as panic attacks, mood disorders, anger, relationship strain, and coping with big life changes. Laurel also supports people dealing with abandonment, communication problems, family of origin wounds, and the emotional effects of divorce or loss.

With 19 years of clinical experience, she focuses on concrete strategies like coping skills, grounding, emotional regulation, and improved conflict handling. When trauma is a factor, she may include approaches aimed at processing difficult memories and beliefs.

Laurel offers several ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. She asks newcomers to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a time that fits both schedules. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How Laurel Uses Evidence-Based Approaches Online

Laurel commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in online work. CBT helps people notice unhelpful thought patterns and try different behaviors to change how they feel. ACT focuses on clarifying what matters most and taking actions that fit those values, even when difficult feelings appear.

She treats the choice of approach as a team decision. During early sessions she listens to the person's goals, tests what helps, and adjusts methods so the work fits the client's needs and preferences. This collaborative process aims to find tools that are practical and sustainable.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or movement is a concern. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, homework support, or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options help people fit therapy into busy days and maintain ongoing contact between sessions.
