About Lauren
Lauren Gordon is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety and low self-esteem. She also supports people dealing with relationship and family difficulties, grief, trauma and LGBT-related concerns. Lauren works in a respectful and compassionate way and aims to tailor conversations to each person’s needs.
She uses a client-centred approach, which means sessions are guided by the person who comes to therapy.
Background and approach
The counsellor listens closely and helps people find their own solutions rather than imposing fixed steps. This style often suits people who want a supportive space to talk things through and build confidence. Lauren has seven years of experience working with adults across a range of issues.
She has worked with people facing parenting pressures, compassion fatigue, challenges around intimacy and eating concerns. Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment issues, adoption and foster care, autism and Asperger syndrome, ADHD, and caring for someone with chronic illness. She holds membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
That credential is shown as BACP in her profile. Sessions are conducted in English and she works from the United Kingdom. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the counsellor’s availability.
Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time and fees vary with location and availability.

How client-centred work translates to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, acceptance and following the person’s lead. In practice this means the counsellor reflects what is said, asks questions to clarify, and helps the client decide next steps. This approach can help with anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship issues and coping with life changes.The collaborative style of this counsellor means finding the right approach happens together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, and adapt the way sessions run as understanding grows. That might mean trying different ways of working until the best fit is clear.
Session formats are not specified in the profile, so please confirm the current online options before booking. Many people find online work helps fit therapy around work, childcare and travel by reducing commute time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. Online sessions can also make it easier to keep continuity during life changes, and let people choose quieter surroundings or lower-bandwidth options depending on their situation.
