About Lauren
Lauren Gordon is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety and parenting worries. She also supports those dealing with low self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, grief, and LGBT-related concerns. She writes in a straightforward way and aims to make starting therapy feel doable and calm.
She uses a client-centred approach, which means conversations focus on the person in front of her. Sessions are shaped around each person’s goals and pace rather than a fixed checklist.
Background and approach
That helps when someone needs space to talk through upheaval, loss, or changes at home. Lauren has seven years of experience working with a wide range of concerns. Her work has included helping people with trauma and abuse, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, and managing anger.

Additionally she has experience with adoption and foster care, attachment issues, blended family challenges, and caregiver stress. Lauren also works with people who struggle with codependency, communication problems, control issues and commitment worries.
Her background includes supporting those affected by domestic violence and chronic health conditions. Sessions are offered in English and are based in the United Kingdom. Lauren is registered with BACP, which is shown as BACP.
Her approach is practical and people-focused, aiming to help clients find clearer thinking and steadier ways of coping. To begin, people complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions that fit their availability.

How client-centred therapy works online
Client-centred therapy places the person at the heart of sessions. The therapist listens closely and follows the client’s lead, helping them to name priorities and decide what to work on. This approach can be helpful for issues such as stress, low self-esteem, relationship and family worries, and parenting concerns.In practice, that means conversations are tailored to the person rather than a fixed programme. The therapist offers empathy and reflection, and together they explore new ways of coping and making changes. This collaborative way of working helps when people face grief, trauma, or transitions and want a steady, supportive space to think things through.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with each person to identify what feels most useful and adjust methods as needs and goals evolve. Decisions about focus and pace are made together so therapy fits individual preferences.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversations and visual connection, phone calls can suit those with limited bandwidth, and chat or messaging can work for quick check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options help people fit therapy around work, childcare and daily life.
