About Lauren

Lauren Burns is a counsellor who focuses on stress, anxiety, depression and relationship problems. She also supports people coping with grief, trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, parenting strain and career questions. Lauren aims to help people notice what is getting in the way and practise new ways of responding to hard feelings.

Her style is warm and person-centred. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person. Lauren listens for patterns that link current struggles with early experiences and relationship habits.

Background and approach

She uses a mix of approaches so sessions can be practical or reflective as needed. Cognitive behavioural work helps with clear strategies for anxiety and low mood. Psychodynamic and attachment-based ideas are used to look at how past relationships shape current reactions.

Lauren has four years of professional experience, including time in independent practice and volunteering in the NHS. She holds BACP status, which is shown as BACP in her credentials. In a first meeting she focuses on what matters most to the person and offers small steps to try between sessions.

Over time the work aims to build more steady coping, clearer communication and a kinder relationship with the self. Sessions are offered online by video, phone, live chat or messaging, and international clients are accepted. Practical details about cost and how to begin are provided through the service's booking flow.

Therapeutic approaches for online counselling

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current responses. It helps people understand patterns in close relationships and how those patterns affect trust, intimacy and reactions to stress.

Client-centred therapy places the person at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens without judgement and helps the person make their own sense of difficult feelings and choices.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It offers practical tools to reduce anxiety and low mood by changing unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns.

Finding the right approach is often a process. The counsellor will work together with the person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That collaboration means techniques can be adjusted as the work unfolds.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to suit different needs. Video is useful for a fuller sense of the counsellor and face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth is limited or when a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging allow shorter, more immediate contact or ongoing reflection between longer sessions. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
