My name is Lauren and I am passionate about helping people connect with themselves more deeply. I have over 10 years experience working with trauma in private practice, as a researcher and with the Centre for Survivors of Torture and Trauma. I use a range of therapeutic techniques to help people become more present in their lives and develop a sense of safety in the world, their relationships and in their own body. Through loving presence and techniques from Focusing and Internal Family Systems Therapy (IFS), I help people access their own deep sense of inner knowing.

Hello, I offer inclusive counselling for young people, adults, couples and families who are dealing with complex transitions, relationship challenges and identity changes, or struggling with loss, grief and unresolved trauma. With professional and lived experience among a range of diverse communities, I understand that adjusting to these events can be complicated, and even more distressing without the right kind of emotional support. It can lead us to question our journey and undermine our ability to move forward in our lives. Together we can explore whatever is happening for you in a culturally safe and trauma-informed way.

As a counsellor, my focus is on increasing quality of life. I help clients process their experiences in an environment of respect, help them feel heard, safe and validated.

We all struggle with life’s demands, feeling stuck, alone, or uncertain about navigating transitions. Some are overwhelmed by emotions, others seek to understand their past, and many are striving for meaningful change. They want to break free from worry, self-doubt, or old patterns and regain control. They seek a tailored approach that blends practical strategies like CBT and DBT with the option for deeper, long-term exploration. Their goal is to regulate emotions, manage behaviours that hold them back, and create lasting, positive change, allowing them to feel more grounded, confident, and fulfilled in life.

The essence of my therapy is in building solid, safe relationships collaboratively with my clients, catering to the unique needs of each person in a non-judgmental way. Rather than tell someone what they need, I prefer a merging of minds to make meaningful and sustainable differences. Together we explore resources to overcome adversity and suffering whilst learning to accept and adapt to the complicated facets of life where required. My therapeutic approach is also rooted in a deep exploration of early life experiences, with a focus on understanding and facilitating the healing of trauma or patterned behaviour.
