Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Lauren Blount. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.
I could not have found a therapist more aligned with my needs. Lauren is professional but casual and easy to talk to. She is always ready with helpful tools and considerate of my needs in a 100% judgement free way. She also helps to keep me focused on my goals which is a struggle for me. She is compassionate and her guidance is perfectly attuned to my needs. I have had massive shifts already after only a few weeks. I would absolutely recommend her!
Spent some time with Lauren as my therapist, had to cancel my account, grateful I’m able to pick back up with her a year later. She remembered my stories and situations and was already super helpful after our first session. Looking forward to continuing on and growing more with Lauren and teen counseling!
Lauren has given me tools to help me understand and improve my own mental health
Dr. Blount has helped tremendously by teaching me coping mechanisms to deal with day-to-day issues.
Lauren is wonderful! She made me feel like she truly cares and listens well to what I had to say. Her advice and suggestions are greatly beneficial to my overall well being.
Wonderful. Insightful.
Lauren is great! I would recommend her 100% she has great resolutions for my issues.
Lauren has been invaluable in helping me understand more about why I'm at where I am, and giving me tools to help myself. I'm in a much better place now than I was when we started our sessions.
Excellent therapist and very easy to talk too !!!
Working with Lauren has been a fantastic experience. She has been so helpful in helping me work through some issues that I've been facing. She is an amazing listener and is so kind, thoughtful, and understanding and provides great support, methods, and ideas every session.
She was really great at listening to what I was saying and finding one of the things I was ACTUALLY struggling with that was feeding what I thought was the problem.
Very good listener and impartial, which is very important. Offer great advice and very patient.
She is great at listening and understand. Has great suggestions on how to tackle tough choices in life
Lauren has been very understanding and supportive. She has helped me to organize and prioritize my goals for therapy.
Lauren is able to seemingly and effortlessly access relative experience in lighting speed with laser precision and present it in the context of whatever topic our sessions lean. That, in and of itself, is validating my ease, comfort, and trust with snd on her.
Lauren has helped me so much already. She’s very good at listening and really makes me feel heard. Looking forward to more sessions with her
My phone appointments with Lauren have been very helpful.
Being a "newbie" to therapy I was very nervous about how the first session would go Lauren is very calming and patient with me and made me feel at ease. I look forward to our sessions now. I would highly recommend Lauren.
Our therapist is so receptive to what we are going through and really does listen to both sides of the story as well as provide guidance in a way that is not intrusive or blasé.
She actually gives me hope in trying to remedy our relationship issues and does it such a respectful way.
I was very hesitant about doing therapy online from the start and did completely changed my perspective in what can be achieved if both parties are in it to win it.
And even if they “both” are not, I’ve still gained so much insight on how to proceed from here on.
Thank you Lauren

I really trust Lauren. I've never had a therapist in my life and we are a couple weeks in and I trust her to really help me with the deep struggles. She has wonderful advice, and is so calming when the hard emotions resurface. Lauren is spot on with my therapy and I look forward to her suggestions and handouts! This is the best I've felt in 40 years. What a journey it is to have a warm friend to help me through healing!

Very helpful and pleased with Lauren’s help.
A very helpful and kind guide so far
She's been phenomenal giving me different points of views and insights on things and issues I never understood.
Her smile and voice calms me. I have never felt like I could tell someone anything and never be judged
Lauren is calm and perceptive. She really brings light to what I’m feeling without maybe having the words for it. She always ensures me I can reach out whenever and provides me ways to realistically improve myself and my life. I’m really happy working with her!
Lauren is very patient and sweet. It really helps me to have her support in my life.
Lauren has had positive impact on my thoughts in only 2 sessions!
My therapist is extremely helpful. She listens to me and understands where I’m coming from and my background. She knows how to speak to me and has so much of experience with people who have traumas! She also knows what subject to touch and which one she shouldn’t. She has huge amounts of understanding of someone and helps me to see the positive. I choose teen counseling and I feel I made the right choice! Would I ever recommend teen counseling to someone in need of help in a more professional way? The answer is yes and especially for someone who has been abused. I feel understood for once and I would definitely recommend Lauren as a recommendation for therapy! Thanks to Lauren I’m healing day by day!
Lauren is amazing! She is very knowledgeable, respectful and positive! I appreciate the work she is doing with me!
