About Lauren

Lauren Coats is the clinical director and owner of Rockwall Counseling and Wellness and Counseling and Wellness of Heath. Lauren is a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor whose direct approach works very well for individuals and couples looking for techniques to use at home to increase communication, lessen symptoms of depression and anxiety, and create healthy boundaries in relationships.

Lauren earned her Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies at Texas A&M University and began her work in the public schools as a 6th grade teacher, finding that she enjoyed working with adolescents. Soon after she earned her Master of Science in Counseling at Texas A&M University-Commerce and began working with clients right away.  Lauren launched Rockwall Counseling and Wellness in the summer of 2018 and has since grown it to four offices with more than 35 local therapists that specialize in different areas of therapy. Lauren’s life passion is working with couples to provide practical tools to help with communication and dealing with past hurts. Affair recovery is amongst her specialties—as is co-parenting, divorce recovery, and conflict in relationships. Additionally, Lauren loves supervising therapists and helping them grow as they work with their own clients within Rockwall Counseling and Wellness and Counseling and Wellness of Heath.

Lauren works to make counseling comfortable, confidential, and practical. At your first session you will be given several tangible ways to implement a recovery plan in the first session. At the second session, you will be given a Plan of Care that outlines how many appointments you will need and what goals we will work to reach during your time in therapy. You shouldn’t have to guess at what you’re working on in therapy and Lauren knows that you want some tangible tools even at the beginning of the counseling journey. Lauren works to cater the therapy process to each client by giving a progress report every 6 to 8 sessions to ensure that therapy is working for you and your specific goals, as they often change and grow during the process.
