About Laverna
Laverna Soucie is an LPC with six years of clinical experience. She practices from Texas and brings a practical, person-centered approach to conversations about stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, and life changes. She aims to meet people where they are and help them find manageable steps forward.
Her style is warm and straightforward. She listens to each person’s story and helps them name what they’re feeling. Sessions focus on everyday problems like sleep, parenting strain, relationship conflict, and work stress. She also addresses trauma, abuse, mood concerns such as depression and bipolar symptoms, and compassion fatigue.
Clinically, she uses tools drawn from Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and the Gottman Method. Those approaches are mixed to suit the issue at hand rather than applied in a single rigid way. Expect practical skills, emotion-focused work, and guided processing when trauma is involved.
Her background includes years of healthcare experience and work in end-of-life care, which informs how she talks about grief, hospice concerns, and difficult losses. She also supports people facing adoption and foster care questions, attachment concerns, and family-of-origin issues.
People who reach out usually want clear, manageable guidance. The emphasis is on small, realistic changes that add up over time. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connections shape current relationships. It helps people understand patterns in close partnerships and family ties and works on building clearer emotional bonds. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors that keep stress and depression going. Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on emotions in relationships and aims to shift interaction patterns so partners or family members feel more connected.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person’s goals and comfort level. Sessions can blend emotion-focused work with skill building and trauma processing depending on what is needed.
The original profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - they can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins on a work break, or help when bandwidth is limited by offering audio-only options if available. Talk with the therapist about practical arrangements and preferred session length to make therapy realistic for everyday routines.
