I specialise in supporting adults and children and young people affected by trauma, including sexual abuse, domestic abuse, and the longer-term emotional impact of these experiences. I also work with anxiety, grief, relationship difficulties, and challenges related to self-esteem and emotional wellbeing.

I offer a consistent, stable and supportive therapeutic relationship, where you can explore your experiences at a pace that feels safe for you. This may include both present-day difficulties and past experiences that continue to affect how you feel today.

My approach is person-centred and integrative, which means I adapt how I work to meet your individual needs. You remain at the centre of the process, and together we can explore what feels most helpful for you. I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches, including CBT-informed techniques, to support understanding, emotional regulation, and change.

Hello, I’m Lauren, a qualified Person-Centred Counsellor and registered member of the BACP. I offer a warm, compassionate, and non-judgemental space where you can talk freely and be truly heard.

My passion lies in supporting people who are experiencing grief and loss. For several years, I have volunteered with Macmillan Caring Locally, a palliative care unit, where I’ve had the privilege of working alongside individuals and families navigating some of life’s most difficult moments.

Having personal experience of stillbirth and miscarriage, I bring understanding and empathy to those facing similar losses. I know how deeply these experiences can affect every part of life, and I aim to provide gentle support as you make sense of your feelings and find your own way forward.

Whether you are seeking change, struggling to cope, or simply need someone to talk to, I will meet you where you are. Together, we can work towards finding light and hope, even in the darkest of times.

I understand the importance of accessible therapy, and I offer sessions face-to-face, online, by phone, through home visits, and walk-and-talk therapy, so you can choose what feels most comfortable for you.

How I Work

As a Person-Centred Counsellor, my approach is grounded in the belief that you are the expert on your own life. My role is not to give advice or tell you what to do, but to offer a safe, supportive space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings freely.

I work with empathy, honesty, and respect, creating an environment where you can feel truly heard and accepted without judgement. Through this process, you can begin to make sense of your experiences, reconnect with your strengths, and find your own way forward.

Person-centred counselling focuses on building a genuine, trusting relationship. I will meet you where you are, at your pace, and support you as you uncover greater self-understanding and clarity. Many clients find that, over time, this helps them feel more empowered, peaceful, and confident in themselves.

Every person’s journey is unique — and together, we can work towards the changes and healing that feel right for you.

If you’d like to find out more or arrange a first session, please feel free to get in touch — I’d be honoured to walk alongside you on your journey .
