Lauri Dunn, LCSW

Lauri Dunn is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and the aftermath of trauma and abuse. She offers a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about what’s hardest and take small steps toward change. Her tone is supportive and direct, aimed at people who want clear, practical help.

With nine years of experience working in mental health, she assists clients navigating relationship strain, family conflict, grief, addiction challenges, and issues with intimacy and self-esteem. She also supports those coping with bipolar disorder, sleep struggles, anger, and career stress. Her approach centers on listening first and tailoring help to each person’s goals.

In sessions she focuses on helping clients name problems, try new ways of coping, and build routines that feel manageable. She aims to empower people so they can make choices that lead to a more balanced life. Progress is paced to each person’s needs rather than a fixed script.

She practices in Delaware as an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time; cost varies with location and therapist availability. People should confirm current session formats before booking.

To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist’s availability. That start helps match goals and make the best use of session time.

Approaches that guide online work

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are the foundation of her work. One approach focuses on helping people process traumatic events by naming what happened, understanding reactions, and building skills to manage distress. This method can help people reduce overwhelming memories and feel more grounded in daily life.

A second approach emphasizes practical coping strategies. That includes breaking problems into manageable steps, learning relaxation and sleep-support routines, and testing new ways of handling relationship conflict or anger. These techniques aim to make everyday life more workable rather than relying on big insights alone.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about their goals, symptoms, and preferences, and then try approaches that fit. Adjustments are made as progress is tracked so the plan stays useful and relevant.

Many people find online therapy helpful for fitting sessions into busy schedules and maintaining continuity of care. Online sessions can make it easier to meet during a work break, avoid travel time, or check in when emotions spike between in-person visits. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are available and which will best fit your routine.
