Hello and a warm welcome to Lacuna Counselling with Lauren. I recognise how important it is to find a therapist that you feel safe and comfortable with, and that is exactly what you will find here in my practice. I really value the importance of counselling that is tailored specifically to you, which is why I never use a ‘one size fits all’ approach with my clients. Here at Lacuna you will find counselling that is formed in a collaborative way, where your voice and thoughts will always be heard. I know how daunting it can feel to take that step and seek counselling, so I will always do my best to help you feel supported and at ease in our sessions. Whether this is your first therapy journey or the next stage in your self-exploration, whether you’re a young person seeking support or someone in later life looking to delve into their past, I will honour your life and experiences with respect and openness.
I work in an integrative way, which means I use multiple different types of counselling and training to build the way I work. Using my qualifications in Psychology, Counselling and Psychotherapy, I tailor my work to ensure I can offer you the support that you need, in the way that you need it. At the core of my work is the therapeutic relationship, a foundation of trust between myself and you, the client, which allows you to unravel your thoughts, feelings and life experiences.
I try to be as flexible as I can for my clients as I know how busy life can be, which is why I offer daytime, evening and weekend sessions where needed.
