About Lauren
Lauren Burns is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship strain and the daily weight of life changes. She supports those coping with grief, trauma, addiction concerns, parenting pressures and career crossroads. Lauren brings a calm, non-judgemental presence and aims to help people feel steadier in themselves.
She uses a client-centred approach that keeps the person’s experience at the heart of each session. Lauren combines this with attachment-informed ideas and elements from cognitive behavioural and psychodynamic work when helpful. Sessions focus on what matters to the individual and on practical steps they can use between meetings.
With four years of experience, Lauren has worked in private practice and volunteered as a counsellor in the NHS. Her BACP registration is shown as BACP. That background shapes a reflective, relationship-focused way of working rather than a single technique.
Clients can expect a collaborative process where pace and goals are set together. Lauren listens for patterns that cause pain and helps identify small changes that build over time. She aims to leave people with clearer choices and coping tools for difficult moments.
If someone wants to try talking therapy, Lauren encourages an initial step to see whether the approach feels right. She supports people through practical concerns, emotional work and planning for life beyond therapy.
How client-centred and attachment work translate online
Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience first and asks the counsellor to listen without judgement. Online sessions that follow this approach concentrate on understanding what the client wants to change and on building a trusting relationship even when not meeting in person.Attachment-informed work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. In online sessions this can help with repeated difficulties in close relationships, fears of abandonment or problems with trust by tracing how those patterns began and how they play out now.
Cognitive behavioural ideas focus on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and often introduce practical exercises. Online sessions can use short between-session tasks to test new ways of thinking and behaving and then review what helped.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will talk through goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then try methods that suit each person. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as therapy progresses.

Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy around work, childcare and travel, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce time spent travelling to appointments.
