About Lauryn
Lauryn Harris, NCPS, offers calm, steady support for people dealing with anxiety, phobias and other distressing problems. She writes in a warm, person-centred style and aims to make sessions feel straightforward and practical. Parents reading on a phone will find short, clear explanations and a focus on small, achievable steps.
Lauryn uses a counsellor-led approach built around listening with empathy and respect. Conversations focus on what matters most to the client and on finding ways to cope with day-to-day pressures.
Background and approach
She can help with phobias alongside anxiety, panic, stress and sleep problems. Her background includes three years working in conversational therapy settings. During that time she has supported people with addictions, trauma and grief and with relationship and intimacy concerns.
She also has experience with neurodiversity and attachment issues. Sessions aim to blend practical skills and reflection. Lauryn draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to help people notice patterns and try different responses.
She also uses client-centred and attachment-based principles to stay focused on each person’s experience. People often come for focused help with single problems or for longer-term support through major life changes. Meetings are paced to the individual, with space to explore feelings and to practise concrete techniques that can be used between sessions.
How therapeutic approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, phobias and for coping with life changes because it focuses on practical steps rather than trying to stop thoughts.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It teaches clear techniques to test and change unhelpful patterns, which can reduce avoidance and improve sleep and mood.
Lauryn will work with each person to find the best approach. She discusses goals and preferences and adapts methods so they fit day-to-day life. Finding the right mix of talking, skills practice and activity planning is a shared process between therapist and client.
Online sessions can be booked as video calls, phone appointments, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper discussion and real-time exercises. Phone work uses less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Text and live chat suit short check-ins, journalling between sessions or when someone prefers written conversation. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and other commitments.
