About Lauren
Lauren Baxendale is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression and self-esteem concerns. She supports those facing life changes, low motivation and confidence issues. Lauren approaches each person with respect and curiosity, believing they know their own story best.
She uses a client-focused style that centres the person in the room. Sessions aim to build on strengths and practical coping skills. Conversations are guided by what matters most to the individual, not by a rigid script.
Lauren has five years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom and holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Her background includes supporting people through grief, trauma and addiction concerns as well as relationship and intimacy-related issues.
She also works with matters such as parenting strain, career uncertainty, compassion fatigue and attention difficulties linked to ADHD. Lauren pays attention to attachment, communication and blended family issues when they come up in sessions.
Her way of working is straightforward and warm. She invites people to talk through what feels difficult and to try new ways of responding. The focus is on small, achievable changes that make daily life feel more manageable.
Client-centred care and online counselling
Client-Centred Therapy places your experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens without judgement and follows what you bring to the room. This approach helps when you want to feel heard, increase self-understanding, or work through personal decisions.The focus on strengths and collaboration means sessions are paced to suit you. The counsellor will invite reflection and practical steps that feel manageable. This style can be useful for concerns like anxiety, low mood, relationship questions and coping with life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be negotiated together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. That way you can adjust the way you work as needs change.
Session formats are not listed in the therapist's biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when days are tight. It can also help when quieter surroundings or less visual focus are preferred. Registered or accredited professionals will talk through practical arrangements and help match session style to your situation.
