About Kirsten

Kirsten Lawrence is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and life changes. She works with a wide range of concerns including parenting, grief, self-esteem and career questions. People come to her for a calm space to talk things through and to find clearer ways forward.

She draws on eight years of practice and a person-focused way of working. Kirsten uses Client-Centred Therapy to follow what a person brings to sessions and to help them feel heard.

Background and approach

She also integrates Mindfulness Therapy to support coping with anxiety and mood difficulties. Kirsten offers practical tools alongside listening. Sessions can include grounding exercises, simple mindfulness practices and joint problem-solving about daily stresses.

She aims to help people spot patterns, make small changes and rebuild confidence. Her work is suited to those dealing with relationship strain, family problems, caregiver stress, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, panic or feelings of emptiness. Kirsten also supports people navigating identity and LGBT issues and the fallout of cruelty or abuse.

She is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Kirsten provides sessions in English to clients in the United Kingdom and internationally. Therapy is offered in several online formats so people can choose what fits their routine.

How Kirsten's approaches work online

Kirsten uses Client-Centred Therapy to listen closely and respond to what each person brings. This approach focuses on understanding a person's experience, helping them name feelings and decide what matters most to change. It suits people who need space to be heard and to build self-understanding.

She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple attention and breathing exercises. These techniques help reduce reactivity to stress, manage anxiety and stabilise mood through small, repeatable practices anyone can use between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Kirsten will talk with clients about their goals and preferences and then adapt methods together. That collaborative process helps find what feels most helpful rather than imposing a single way of working.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls recreate a face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins and text messaging lets people reflect between sessions. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving or travel commitments.
