About Lauryn
Lauryn Harris is a counsellor who aims to help people feeling overwhelmed by trauma, loss, relationship strain or addictive behaviours. She writes in a warm, nonjudgemental way and focuses on meeting each person where they are. Conversations are practical and paced to what the client can handle in the moment.
She bases her work on client-centred principles, which means sessions are shaped around the person rather than a fixed script.
Background and approach
Lauryn also draws on trauma-focused methods and cognitive behavioural ideas when they suit the situation. That gives a mix of listening, exploring patterns, and trying small changes between sessions. Lauryn has three years of experience and holds the NCPS credential.
She has supported people through grief, anxiety, depression, bipolar mood challenges, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. She also works with concerns such as eating and sleeping difficulties, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and stress related to caring for others. Clients often bring complex stories involving attachment, abandonment, or relationship difficulties.
Lauryn uses attachment-based thinking to look at how early relationships shape current reactions. The aim is to build clearer understanding and practical ways to respond differently in daily life. Sessions can include goal-setting, mindfulness and values work from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, alongside cognitive techniques for coping with difficult thoughts.
The focus is on small, workable steps that fit into a person's life. Lauryn accepts international clients and delivers therapy in English.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It uses simple exercises to clarify priorities and accepts difficult thoughts while still moving forward. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and feelings; it helps people understand patterns and learn new ways to connect and respond. Client-Centred Therapy centres the person's experience, offering steady empathy and respect so clients can work through issues at their own pace.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss different methods and try options that match the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. This is a collaborative process, and plans are adjusted as progress is made or priorities change.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people read facial cues and talk face to face, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit during a break at work. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, written reflections, or people who prefer not to be on camera. These formats make it easier to keep therapy consistent around busy lives and different time zones, while still focusing on clear steps and coping strategies.
