About Loren
Loren Johnson is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Texas who works with individuals facing stress, anxiety, self-esteem struggles, and life changes. She helps people talk through relationship transitions, workplace pressures, and questions about life purpose in a straightforward, compassionate way.
Loren uses Narrative Therapy to help people separate themselves from problems and rewrite the stories that hold them back. She combines that with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are also used to identify patterns and try small, practical changes. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Loren listens for strengths and moments of resilience, then helps people build simple skills they can try between sessions.
She often works on communication habits, coping strategies for stress, and ways to reduce shame around eating and body concerns. Her approach is collaborative - clients set the pace and priorities. Expect clear language, tangible steps, and a focus on what matters most in daily life rather than jargon or abstract theory.
Loren brings three years of clinical experience as an LMFT and maintains a calm, steady style. She supports people dealing with caregiver stress, divorce and separation, workplace issues, and questions about identity and sexuality. Sessions are offered in English and take place online or by phone.

Online session options
Narrative and Action-Focused Care Online
Online work with Loren draws on Narrative Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people make meaningful shifts in daily life. Narrative Therapy helps a person separate themselves from their problems and retell difficult experiences in ways that reduce shame and open new options. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches noticing thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed and choosing actions that match personal values.Loren approaches treatment collaboratively. She will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they decide which methods to try. That choice is revisited as work progresses so the approach fits changing needs and real-life demands.
Practical benefits of online therapy include scheduling flexibility and different ways to connect. Video calls let for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when video isn't possible, and live chat or text messaging allow shorter check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or a way to work without being on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy routines while still using Narrative and ACT tools to address stress, relationships, and self-esteem.
