About Lauren

Lauren Sciremammano is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina. She focuses on helping people manage trauma, depression, anxiety, and major life transitions. Lauren works with teens and adults and brings six years of clinical experience to her practice.

Her style is direct and practical. She aims to make sessions useful and easy to understand. Clients can expect clear goals, concrete skills, and regular check-ins to track progress.

Lauren uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address intense emotions and patterns that cause distress. She draws on approaches that help people tolerate strong feelings, reframe painful memories, and build everyday coping skills. This practical focus is aimed at steady, manageable change rather than quick fixes.

Her background includes work in emergency rooms and intensive outpatient settings with teens and adults. That experience informs how she responds to crisis, safety concerns, and overwhelming stress. It also shapes her focus on measurable progress and follow-up.

Alongside core concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, and addiction, Lauren lists hospice and end-of-life counseling among her focus areas. She also addresses caregiver stress, attachment and abandonment issues, first responder stress, communication problems, and gender dysphoria. Lauren blends straightforward talk, skills practice, and regular outcome checks to help people move forward.

Evidence-based approaches and online care that fit your life

Lauren uses a small set of evidence-based techniques aimed at practical change. One is Dialectical Behavior Therapy, which teaches skills for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and tolerating distress. It is often used for people who struggle with mood swings, strong reactions, or self-destructive behaviors.

A second approach is trauma-focused cognitive behavioral work, which helps people process traumatic memories and reduce their impact on daily life through structured exercises and gradual exposure. This approach is commonly chosen for people recovering from abuse, accidents, or other trauma. Lauren also uses measurement-based care to track progress with simple, repeated check-ins so goals and strategies can be adjusted over time.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level, and will adjust plans as progress is seen.

For online therapy logistics, the biography does not list specific formats, so confirm available session types before booking. Many clients find online work helpful because it can fit into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full session isn’t needed. Online sessions can also make it easier to continue care during life changes or when in-person visits are difficult to arrange.
