Speak to Lauren – Online Counselling Across the UK 

About My Approach

My work is grounded in a person-centred experiential approach. This means there’s no formula to follow and no version of yourself you need to become before you come to therapy.

✨ You’re not here to be “fixed” - you’re here to be heard.
🧩 You’re the expert in your own experience.
🌱 We’ll explore what matters to you, at your pace.
🤝 Our relationship is at the heart of the work.

I believe meaningful change can happen when you have the time, safety and connection to really understand what’s going on for you. This is where curiosity, creativity and compassion meet.

Who I Work With

My practice is particularly attuned to:

🧠 Neurodivergent adults — including those who identify as autistic, ADHD, AuDHD or otherwise neurodivergent, as well as those beginning to wonder whether this language might resonate with their experiences.

🎭 Adults working in the arts and entertainment industries — whether you’re on stage, backstage, behind the scenes or in an office role, navigating the uncertainty, pressure and particular challenges that can come with creative work.

I also support adults experiencing:

😔 Anxiety and depression

🔥 Burnout and overwhelm

🪞 Identity and self-esteem struggles

🔄 Life transitions, uncertainty and relationship difficulties

You might be very good at coping, while feeling exhausted underneath it all. You might be used to masking, adapting, pushing through or making things look easier than they feel. Whatever brings you here, we can take the time to understand what’s happening and explore what you want to change.

What You’ll Find Here

🌀 A calm, accepting place to pause and reflect

🎭 An understanding of the realities of arts and entertainment work

🧠 Neurodivergent-affirming support that respects different ways of thinking, feeling and being

🤝 A genuine therapeutic relationship built on trust, empathy and collaboration

My aim isn’t simply to help you cope better. It’s to help you understand yourself more deeply, find what works for you, and move towards more than just getting by.

About Me

I’m a qualified Person-Centred Experiential Counsellor and Registered Member of the BACP (MBACP).

✅ Collaborative, creative and client-led

✅ Fully online, flexible and confidential

✅ Experience within the arts and music industries

✅ Neurodivergent-affirming and welcoming of different ways of thinking, feeling and being

My own background in the arts and music industries means I understand something of the realities of creative work from the inside - including the uncertainty, identity, pressure and passion that can come with it.
