Steven Lawrence, LCPC

Steven Lawrence is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) who helps people facing anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship strain. He speaks plainly and focuses on practical steps parents and individuals can use to feel steadier day to day. His style aims to be respectful and compassionate while avoiding stigmatizing labels.

He blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered work, and elements of mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas. Sessions typically look at how habits of thought and behavior keep problems going, and then test small changes that can make things easier. He also pays attention to how past hurts shape current reactions and relationships.

Steven has six years of clinical experience and works with people affected by trauma, abuse, parenting challenges, and mood concerns such as bipolar disorder. He also helps people dealing with anger, attachment struggles, blended family issues, caregiver stress, and feelings of emptiness. The goal is to find manageable, realistic tools that fit each person’s life.

He uses a consent-based approach that centers the client’s goals and pace. Sessions are conversational and practical, with homework or exercises when they help. Steven emphasizes collaboration, helping clients notice patterns and experiment with different ways of coping.

Therapy is offered from Idaho and is available in English. He accepts international clients and offers multiple online session formats for flexibility. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on availability.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Steven often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes that can reduce anxiety or low mood. CBT focuses on practical steps you can try between sessions so progress feels concrete and measurable.

He also draws on client-centered therapy, which emphasizes listening and working at a pace set by the client. This approach helps people feel heard and shapes treatment around their priorities and goals.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Steven will collaborate with each person to clarify goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. If something isn’t helping, he adjusts the plan so sessions stay useful.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for a fuller sense of the interaction, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat work well for quick check-ins or brief problem-solving. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to maintain continuity when schedules change.
