Laverna Soucie

Laverna Soucie is an LPC with six years of clinical experience who practices from Texas. She draws on a background that blends mental health care and medical experience to support people facing big life shifts. Her approach is practical and straightforward, aimed at helping clients manage stress, grief, relationship strain, and other pressing concerns.

She uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. Attachment-Based Therapy informs how she looks at connection and patterns in close relationships. She also works with Emotionally-Focused Therapy and EMDR ideas when trauma and strong emotions are part of the picture.

Laverna emphasizes hearing each person’s story first. She meets clients where they are and helps set clear, manageable goals. Sessions focus on the next steps a person can take, not just on talking about problems.

Her prior work as a registered nurse, including hospice care, shapes how she supports grief, end-of-life concerns, and medical-related stress. That background helps her combine practical coping strategies with emotional support.

People often seek her help for anxiety, depression, parenting strain, relationship and intimacy issues, trauma, sleep problems, career stress, and major life transitions. She also addresses topics like abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, body image, and codependency.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how people connect and respond in close relationships. Online sessions using this perspective look at patterns in connection and help clients practice new ways of relating in daily life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify upsetting thoughts and try different behaviors. In virtual sessions this often means setting small, doable tasks and reviewing results together to build better routines.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy centers on emotions in relationships and helps partners or individuals name and shift interaction patterns. Applied remotely, it can guide conversations that change how people respond to each other at home.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences, then suggest which methods to try first. Plans can change over time as progress and priorities shift.

The original biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break, or avoiding the need to be on camera for parts of a session. Licensed professionals can use remote work to keep continuity of care during life transitions and to practice skills between meetings.
