About Lauren

Lauren Percival is a counsellor who aims to help people feeling overwhelmed by stress, low mood, anxiety or relationship strain. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Lauren writes simply and listens closely to understand what matters most to each person.

She uses an integrative way of working, bringing together several helpful approaches to match a person's needs. Sessions can focus on short-term goals or go deeper depending on what someone wants.

Background and approach

Lauren encourages practical steps you can try between sessions as well as making sense of difficult feelings in the moment. Her clients have included people facing bereavement, work-related pressures, problems with sleep or eating, and struggles linked to identity and intimacy. She also supports those coping with addiction, anger, bipolar mood swings and major life changes.

Young adult issues are another area she gives attention to. Lauren has three years of professional experience. She emphasises respect and equality in the room and aims to create a calm space where people can talk without judgement.

Conversations tend to balance listening, reflection and straightforward suggestions. If someone decides to start therapy, Lauren works collaboratively to set clear aims and review progress. She invites practical problem-solving alongside moments of exploration so people leave sessions with both new understanding and usable steps forward.

How therapeutic approaches adapt to online sessions

Lauren works with evidence-based techniques in an integrative way, combining elements that suit the person's needs. Person-centred work focuses on building understanding and empathy, helping someone feel heard and valued while they talk through difficult feelings. Gestalt-style work pays attention to present moment experience and bodily sensations, which can help when addressing anxiety or relationship patterns. Brief solution-focused elements concentrate on practical goals and small changes, useful for stress, sleep problems or getting unstuck.

Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss what feels most helpful, try things out, and adjust the approach as goals change. Clients and therapist set aims together and review progress so the work stays relevant and practical.

Online formats offer flexibility and choice. Video calls let people meet face to face when a fuller conversation and visual cues matter. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit brief reflections, written processing, or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep continuity when in-person meetings are difficult.
