About Lauren
Lauren Dusbabek is a licensed marriage and family therapist who focuses on practical tools and healing conversations. She brings 15 years of clinical experience to help people manage stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, and trauma. Lauren works to create an open space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgment.
She uses approaches like EMDR, attachment-based work, and cognitive behavioral techniques to address painful memories, patterns in close relationships, and everyday worries.
Background and approach
Sessions are intended to be collaborative - she listens first, then helps people set clear goals. Therapy often includes skills for managing strong emotions and steps to rebuild trust and connection. Lauren also supports people facing family and parenting strains, grief, addictions, and career stress.
She addresses specific concerns such as abandonment, communication problems, blended family issues, and forgiveness in straightforward terms. When trauma is part of the story, she integrates methods aimed at reducing distress linked to those memories. Her style emphasizes empathy and practical steps.
Clients can expect focused discussion, behavioral tools, and attention to how past relationships affect present life. Lauren frames progress as a series of manageable changes rather than sudden fixes. Lauren practices in Nevada and holds the credential LMFT, which stands for Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.
She offers sessions in English and uses a variety of formats to match people’s schedules and needs.

Online support
How EMDR, attachment work, and CBT translate to online care
Lauren blends EMDR, attachment-based approaches, and cognitive behavioral work to meet different needs. EMDR is used to reduce the intensity of troubling memories by guiding attention while processing those experiences. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people notice and change repeating cycles. Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to improve mood and functioning.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level. That decision is collaborative and can shift over time as progress and needs evolve.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction for deeper emotional work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging offer quick check-ins, brief coaching, or support between longer sessions. These options make scheduling more flexible and help people access care around work, family, or other commitments.
