About Lauren
AASW social worker and counsellor with seven years' experience, Lauren Clare helps people manage stress, anxiety, family conflict, trauma and parenting concerns. She works with individuals facing depression, young adult issues and women's health challenges. Sessions focus on practical steps to reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day coping.
Lauren uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques in a collaborative way. She draws on trauma-informed practice and strengths-based work to understand how past events affect current coping. She also uses solution-focused strategies and motivational interviewing to identify goals and build small, achievable changes.
Her background includes work in private practice, child protection, family services and crisis support. That experience informs how she talks through safety planning, communication problems and responses to domestic violence or abuse. Lauren aims to keep conversations concrete and focused on next steps rather than abstract theory.
Parents and caregivers often consult about parenting stress, pregnancy and childbirth concerns, or juggling caregiving with other responsibilities. Lauren helps people break down competing priorities and try practical routines that can be tested and adjusted over time.
People coming after sexual assault, post-traumatic stress or separation find a practical approach that pairs stabilisation with forward-focused planning. Lauren encourages gradual skill-building, checking in about what works, and changing strategies when needed.

How evidence-based techniques translate to online sessions
Lauren commonly uses trauma-informed practice and solution-focused strategies. Trauma-informed practice means noticing how past experiences affect current reactions and prioritising stabilisation and safety planning. It helps with post-traumatic stress, recovery after sexual assault, and responses to domestic violence.Solution-focused strategies and motivational interviewing emphasise small, practical steps and clear goals. These approaches focus on what works now and on building short-term coping skills for stress, anxiety, parenting demands and communication problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lauren collaborates with each person to identify which techniques fit their goals, needs and preferences, and adapts methods as progress or setbacks occur.
The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats. Confirm current options before booking so you know how sessions run. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into busy days, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who have limited internet bandwidth. Appropriately qualified or registered professionals can offer different formats, and Lauren will discuss what will best fit practical routines and therapy goals.
