About Lauren
Lauren Gordon is a counsellor and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has seven years of experience and works with issues such as stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and matters connected to LGBT identity and parenting.
She prefers a client-centred way of working. That means the conversation is led by the person who comes to sessions. The counsellor listens without judgment and helps clients find their own solutions. Sessions focus on practical coping, clearer thinking, and building confidence over time.
Lauren also works with relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues and anger. She offers support around eating and body-image matters, compassion fatigue and coaching-style conversations for life changes. There is experience with ADHD, attachment and adoption and foster-care topics.
Her approach is straightforward. Clients can expect a calm, honest dialogue that looks at what is happening now and what can change. Treatment plans are discussed together rather than imposed.
Sessions are offered in English and are based in the United Kingdom. The profile notes that international clients are not currently accepted. Costs vary with location and sessions are paid through a cancellable subscription model.

How her counselling approach applies to online work
Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, reflecting and following the client's lead. It aims to help people clarify what matters to them and find ways to move forward. This approach is useful for anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship and identity concerns because it centres the client's own goals and pace.Lauren's way of working means she will discuss what an effective approach looks like with each person. She will help clients choose how to work together based on their needs, goals and personal preferences. That decision is made collaboratively, so plans can change as the work progresses.
The profile does not specify which online session formats are offered. Please confirm the available formats before booking. In general, online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Phone calls can be useful when a quieter connection or less bandwidth is needed, while video sessions are often chosen when people prefer face-to-face conversation without travelling.
