About Lauren
Lauren Stone is a counsellor who uses a warm, client-centred way of working. She offers a calm space to talk through worries like stress, anxiety, grief and low mood. Lauren has ten years of experience and is registered with the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP).
She aims to help people understand the events and patterns that keep them stuck. Sessions focus on practical steps as well as gentle reflection about past experiences.
Background and approach
Lauren listens for how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect, and she helps people notice small changes that make a difference. Lauren often blends Cognitive Behavioural Therapy with client-centred work. That means she will look at unhelpful thinking and teach coping skills, while also taking time to hear your view and priorities.
She can also draw on psychodynamic ideas to help people see where old patterns began and how they affect relationships today. Her practice covers a wide range of concerns. These include trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, relationship and family stress, bereavement, self-esteem, and coping with life changes.
She also supports people dealing with issues such as attachment and abandonment, chronic illness or pain, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. Sessions are offered in English and are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Lauren encourages people to take the first step at a pace that feels manageable and to bring what matters most to the sessions.
How Lauren's approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding your view and following the pace you set. The therapist offers acceptance and reflective listening so you can talk through feelings and make your own choices about change. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical skills to manage symptoms and test new ways of thinking. These methods often suit worries like anxiety, stress, low mood and relationship difficulties.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Lauren will talk with you about goals and preferences and together you will agree what to try first. That might mean learning CBT tools for immediate relief, then looking at deeper patterns with psychodynamic ideas, or keeping sessions focused on what matters to you now.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be quicker to arrange, live chat suits short check-ins and text-based messaging lets you write when that feels best. These options give flexibility for working patterns, energy levels and practical needs while keeping the therapeutic process consistent.
