About Laverna
Laverna Soucie is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing from Texas. She brings six years of clinical experience and a health-care background to her counseling work. She focuses on everyday problems like stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and sleep trouble.
Laverna aims for clear, practical help that fits each person's life. Before moving into counseling, she spent many years in nursing and hospice care. That experience shaped how she listens to people facing loss, end-of-life decisions, and chronic stress.
Background and approach
She uses that perspective to address grief, compassion fatigue, and family-of-origin concerns. Laverna uses a mix of approaches to match a person's needs. She applies Gottman Method ideas for relationship patterns, Attachment-Based Therapy for connection and safety, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
She also draws on EMDR and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when trauma or deep emotion is central. Sessions are practical and collaborative. She helps people name what matters, try things between sessions, and track small changes.
Conversations are straightforward, focused on coping skills, communication, and repairing strain. People come to her for a wide range of concerns including parenting struggles, intimacy issues, depression, bipolar challenges, anger, and identity questions such as body image or codependency. Laverna also supports those dealing with adoption and foster care issues, aging and geriatric questions, and hospice or end-of-life topics.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Many of her methods adapt well to online formats. The Gottman Method focuses on communication patterns, interaction habits, and rebuilding trust in relationships; online sessions use live conversation and structured exercises to practice these skills. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at emotional bonds and safety in relationships, helping people notice interaction styles and develop more supported responses during video or phone work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors with concrete tools and homework, which transfers easily to messaging, phone check-ins, and video sessions.Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will collaborate with the client to identify goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust methods over time. Clients can expect discussion about what feels most helpful and small practical steps to practice between meetings.
Online formats provide real flexibility. Video calls let people work face-to-face when a visual connection matters. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a work break. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for short check-ins, skill reminders, or when typing out thoughts feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around busy lives and different schedules.
