About Lauren

Lauren Adams is a UK-based counsellor with six years of experience. She holds a BACP credential and offers appointments in the evenings and at weekends. She works with people aged 16 and over who are facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns and trauma and abuse.

Lauren trained to level 7 in psychotherapeutic practices and brings a creative background into sessions. She uses a humanistic, person-centred approach and includes Gestalt techniques.

Background and approach

This means she attends to emotions as they show up in the body and to feelings that have become stuck or disconnected. Sessions are approachable and informal. Lauren aims to build a trusting working relationship first, so people feel understood and supported.

She focuses on what is happening in the room and responds to each person in the moment. Her work often addresses control issues, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, and questions around life purpose and self-love. She also helps people who experience panic attacks, social anxiety, post-traumatic stress and related concerns.

Therapy is tailored to the individual. Lauren listens for practical steps and small changes that can ease day-to-day life. She offers a steady presence while helping people explore their emotions and choices.

Appointments are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. People who want to begin complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist's availability.

How Lauren's approaches translate to online therapy

Lauren uses person-centred practice alongside Gestalt-informed techniques. Person-centred work focuses on listening deeply and offering empathy so people can explore their feelings at their own pace. This approach helps with anxiety, low mood and relationship worries by creating a steady, non-judgemental space for talking.

Gestalt techniques bring attention to bodily sensations and present-moment experience. In sessions she may invite people to notice where emotions sit in the body, name physical responses, or try small experiments to shift stuck feelings. This can be useful for trauma, panic and when emotions feel disconnected from everyday life.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide what feels most helpful, adapting methods to the person's goals and pace. People are involved in choosing practical steps and in reviewing progress together.

Online therapy here is offered by registered or accredited professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video lets people see facial expressions and use visual cues, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins or times when typing feels easier than speaking. These options help make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
