About me

Hello, I'm Lauren and I am passionate about helping individuals like you navigate life's challenges and discover their inner strength. As a dedicated counsellor, I believe that everyone has the potential to lead a fulfilling and meaningful life, and I am here to support you on your journey towards personal growth and emotional well-being.

I provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and concerns. My approach is client-centred, meaning that I tailor each counselling session to meet your unique needs and goals.

Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or simply seeking personal development, I am here to provide guidance and support. Taking the first step towards seeking counselling can be daunting, but I assure you that you are not alone.

I offer 1 free 30-minute session to enable you to decide if I am the right counsellor for you. Thank you for considering me as your counsellor. I look forward to meeting you and being a part of your personal growth and well-being.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
