Lauren Gordon, BACP

Lauren Gordon is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and relationship strains. She works with clients on issues such as LGBT-related concerns, parenting stresses, grief, trauma and eating or intimacy-related worries. Lauren approaches conversations with patience and respect to help people find clearer ways forward.

Her way of working is grounded in Client-Centred Therapy, which means she centres sessions on the person's own experience and priorities. Sessions are shaped around what the client wants to work on, with gentle reflection and practical pacing rather than imposed steps.

Over seven years of practice in the United Kingdom have given Lauren experience across a wide range of concerns. She has helped people manage anger, cope with life changes, face compassion fatigue and look at issues linked to adoption, attachment and caregiver stress.

Lauren also supports people dealing with ADHD-related challenges, autism and Asperger Syndrome, codependency, and communication or commitment difficulties. She aims to tailor conversations and any plan to each person's situation and goals, and to build a working relationship that feels respectful and constructive.

To begin, a person can expect a straightforward intake and an open conversation about what they want from counselling. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and practical arrangements such as scheduling are made after the initial matching steps.

How client-centred work translates to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy places the person's own experience at the centre of sessions. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what she hears and follows the client’s priorities. This approach helps with issues such as anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship concerns and coping with life changes.

Working this way online means the focus stays on what the client brings to sessions. The therapist and client decide together which topics to prioritise and how to pace conversations. That collaborative approach helps people test what feels useful and adjust the way they work as they go.

Practical benefits of online arrangements include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time, which can make it easier to attend regularly. Some people find shorter check-ins work well when they need a quick focus between other commitments. If you want to know which session formats are offered, please confirm current options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. The therapist will discuss how to structure sessions to suit your needs when you begin.
