About Lauren

Lauren Scogin is a licensed clinical social worker (LICSW in Vermont and LCSW in Maine) with 15 years of experience helping people through life transitions. She moved from the New England seacoast to the Green Mountains and now practices in Vermont. She works with stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, career concerns, relationship strains, and coaching for professionals.

She spent five years as a nursing home administrator, which gave her hands-on experience in organizational management and leadership in healthcare. That background informs her work with elders, caregivers, and families facing health-related changes and end-of-life decisions. She also supports people dealing with divorce, pregnancy loss, and adjustment after major life events.

Her approach draws on client-centered therapy and emotionally-focused methods to help people sort feelings and name what matters. She uses mindfulness and narrative techniques to slow things down, notice patterns, and reframe difficult stories. Solution-focused work helps when someone needs practical next steps and short-term goals.

Sessions aim to be straightforward and practical. Lauren helps clients identify small, manageable changes for everyday life. She also offers coaching-style support for professionals facing leadership or career transitions.

Lauren values clear conversation and practical problem solving. She encourages people to talk about guilt, shame, or unresolved grief so they can move forward. To begin, she asks people to describe the immediate problem and what they hope to change.

BHow sessions work

How Lauren’s approaches translate to online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely to what matters to the person and responding to their priorities. It helps when someone feels overwhelmed and needs a steady, respectful conversation to sort things out. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) attends to emotions in the moment and helps people identify and shift patterns that keep them stuck. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention skills and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve daily coping.

Figuring out which approach fits best is part of the first few sessions. Lauren works collaboratively to match methods to a client's goals, preferences, and immediate needs. Together they decide whether to emphasize emotion work, mindfulness practice, narrative reflection, or short-term solutions.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins during work breaks, and reduce travel time. They can also let a person choose whether to be on camera or use audio only depending on what feels practical that day.
