Lauryn Harris, NCPS

Lauryn Harris is a counsellor who helps people facing a wide range of emotional challenges. She works with those dealing with anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship strain and grief. Lauryn practises with warmth and empathy, and aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable.

She trained as an integrative counsellor and holds the NCPS credential. That background means she draws on several helpful approaches rather than using a single method. Sessions are tailored to each person's needs and pace rather than following a fixed script.

In practice Lauryn uses person-centred ways of working alongside evidence-informed approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. She focuses on listening first, then helping people notice what matters most to them and build small, realistic steps forward. This suits issues such as trauma, eating and sleeping difficulties, and stress-related concerns.

Her work also covers areas such as ADHD, attachment-related problems, caregiver stress and ageing and geriatric issues. Lauryn supports people coping with life transitions and role changes, including career shifts and the strains of caregiving.

Sessions are aimed at helping people increase emotional awareness, strengthen coping skills, and make practical changes that fit their daily lives. The process is collaborative and paced to the client’s goals. To begin, people can follow the site’s matching steps and schedule an initial session.

How therapy approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small actions that align with those values, which can be useful for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviours to reduce distress and improve daily routines. Client-centred work places the person’s experience at the centre, offering a listening, nonjudgemental space to make sense of feelings and choices.

Finding the right approach is often part of therapy itself. Lauryn will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice is reviewed as progress is made, so the plan can be adjusted to better suit what helps.

The original biography did not state which online session formats are used, so please confirm available formats before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also help people maintain continuity of care across locations when international arrangements are required. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists can adapt exercises, worksheets and between-session tasks to suit remote appointments, keeping therapy practical and focused on real-life changes.
