About Lauren
Lauren Gordon is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage anxiety and the everyday stresses that come with parenting, work and relationships. She works with clients who want more confidence, steadier mood, and clearer ways to cope. Lauren speaks plainly and aims to make sessions feel approachable and manageable for worried parents and busy adults.
Lauren uses a person-centred way of working that puts the client's needs first. She listens without judgment and adapts conversations to what matters most to each person.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to build practical coping skills and clearer thinking, not to label or rush the process. She has seven years of experience in counselling work across the United Kingdom and holds BACP registration. That background includes helping people with grief, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, and concerns around body image and eating.
Lauren also supports people facing relationship and family stress, adoption and foster care questions, and the challenges of caregiving. People come to her with a wide range of issues including anger, chronic illness, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses communication problems, commitment worries and avoidant or dependent personality patterns.
In sessions she will help clients identify small, practical steps they can try between meetings. Lauren describes her role as supportive and collaborative. She helps clients set realistic goals, and she works with them to notice what changes are helping.
Her style is warm, direct and focused on usable tools rather than technical jargon.
How Lauren's person-centred approach works online
Lauren uses Client-Centred Therapy, which places the client at the heart of the process. The counsellor listens carefully, reflects what is heard and follows the client's lead to help them make sense of their feelings. This approach is useful for anxiety, low self-esteem and relationship worries because it focuses on understanding and being heard.The therapist will work collaboratively to find the best way forward. Together they will discuss goals, try things that feel manageable and review what helps. Finding the right approach is part of therapy, and Lauren will adapt methods to match the client's needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different lifestyles. Video allows face-to-face conversation when people prefer it. Phone sessions take less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and text messaging suit short check-ins or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, childcare and other commitments.
