About Lauryn

Lauryn Harris is a counsellor who helps people facing anger, trauma, relationship strain and related concerns. She uses a warm, nonjudgemental approach so clients can talk through hard feelings at their own pace. Her style is straightforward and person-focused, aimed at helping people feel heard and understood.

She trained as an integrative counsellor and holds NCPS as a listed credential. That background informs a flexible way of working that adapts to each person. Sessions centre on the client's experience rather than on one fixed method.

In practice she draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and Attachment-Based and Client-Centred work. These methods are used to address issues including addictions, eating and sleeping problems, anxiety, depression and grief. She also supports people with stress, workplace and career concerns, and intimacy-related difficulties.

Lauryn has three years' experience working with people who have faced abuse, trauma and complicated life changes. She offers practical tools and reflective conversation to help people manage emotions, change patterns and rebuild confidence. Her counselling also covers concerns around ADHD, bipolar differences, and compassion fatigue.

Sessions take place with consideration for each person's needs and goals. International clients may be accepted. To arrange a first step, follow the platform's booking process and complete the short matching questionnaire.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed, and then choosing actions that match your values; it can help with anger, anxiety and patterns that keep repeating. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns, which is useful for worry, low mood and sleep problems. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current reactions and helps people develop different ways of relating and managing strong emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with clients about what feels most helpful and will adapt methods based on needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where methods are tried, reviewed and adjusted together.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around busy days and accessing support if travel is difficult. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments and to use the tools discussed in session during everyday life. The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking to ensure the chosen arrangement fits your schedule.
