In Person Counselling in Bracknell

I work with young people from the age of 16, adults and older adults. My training is integrative, allowing me to draw on a range of theories to support our work. My approach holistic, working with your thoughts, feelings and physical well-being. In a safe, non-judgemental space we will explore the challenges that you face and look towards the changes that you seek. What you share will be held in confidence. We will work at your pace and in line with your needs.

Counselling is for anyone who feels they need help. That help could be coming to terms with a particular issue in your life or learning to manage difficult and upsetting feelings. I provide a safe and confidential environment where you can explore your thoughts, feelings and emotions. Although support may be available from family, friends and colleagues; it is often helpful to step outside of these relationships and speak to a professional who has no other emotional involvement in your life. ​

In our modern society there are so many potential situations where life can become difficult without warning. Some people may have experienced difficulties throughout the whole of their lives, some may have experienced changes to their circumstances that have led to difficulties arising in their teens, 20s, 30s or further into adulthood. Some people may not even have been aware that their circumstances and experiences have led them to a place where they needed help. Whatever a person’s life experiences, everyone deserves an opportunity to heal, develop a stronger sense of self, or just understand themselves better.

If you are thinking about finding a psychologist, chances are something difficult is going on in your life and it is getting harder and harder to deal with it.

By acknowledging the intricate interplay between their physical, emotional, and mental well-being, I can provide comprehensive support that addresses their diverse needs.

My Clients over the last 18 years have ranged from having simple symptoms ( i.e. sleep disturbances, anxiety about interviews or social anxiety ) to severe symptoms (i.e. severe depression, insomnia, PTSD, OCD, Borderline Personality or sexual abuse). My clients are looking for tools that will help them reduce or eliminate those symptoms but they are also wanting to develop long term functional habits that will help them lead a healthier life. Most of my clients are highly functional but they are struggling with emotional issues in their relationships with childhood abuse, addictions, fears, self-esteem and others.

Hello, I’m Lauren, I'm a counsellor in Bagshot near Camberley. Are you finding life difficult? Feeling anxious, stressed or low? Maybe you have found that you are struggling with your relationships?
