About Lauren

Lauren Gordon works with people feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship strain, and life changes. She is a counsellor who focuses on practical conversation and steady support for everyday worries. Lauren is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and brings seven years of professional experience to her practice.

She listens without judgement and adjusts sessions to what each person needs. Sessions centre on the client's priorities and the practical steps they want to try next. That can mean talking through difficult emotions, building small habits, or practising ways to communicate more clearly with others.

Over the years Lauren has helped people with grief, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, parenting stress, and issues linked to sexual orientation. She also supports those navigating eating difficulties, anger, compassion fatigue and ADHD-related challenges. Additional areas she works on include attachment and adoption-related topics, body image, chronic illness and caregiver strain.

Her approach is client-centred, which means the conversation is guided by the person in front of her. Sessions tend to be practical and down-to-earth, with an emphasis on what the client wants to change. Lauren aims to create an atmosphere of respect and sensitivity while helping people try new ways of coping.

To begin, people complete a short questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist's availability. Fees vary with location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How client-centred therapy works online

Client-centred therapy places the person's experience at the heart of sessions. It involves listening closely, reflecting what the person says, and helping them decide what changes to try next. This style can be helpful for stress, anxiety, self-esteem, relationship worries and everyday habits because it follows the client's pace and priorities.

The right approach often emerges together. The counsellor will work collaboratively to identify what feels most useful, adjust the focus over time, and suggest practical steps you can try between meetings. This makes the therapeutic plan flexible and responsive to changing needs.

Practical benefits of online work can include fitting sessions into a busy week and having contact without travel. If you prefer specific session types, please confirm options before booking, as the biography does not list formats. Many people find that remote sessions help maintain momentum and make it easier to try short check-ins or regular appointments around work or family commitments.
