About Lauryn

Lauryn Harris is a counsellor who helps people facing emotional and relationship struggles. She works in a warm, respectful way and aims to make first sessions feel straightforward and manageable. People come to her for help with issues such as anxiety, depression, grief, addictions and intimacy-related concerns.

Lauryn uses a person-centred approach that focuses on listening and understanding. She tailors conversations to each person's needs and encourages reflection and practical steps between sessions. Her background includes three years of direct counselling experience and the NCPS credential, which appears as NCPS in her professional listing.

She has experience supporting people affected by trauma and sexual abuse, and by eating and sleeping difficulties. Other areas she addresses include stress, anger, ADHD, self-esteem and coping with life changes. She also works with issues around relationships, parenting concerns and career strain.

In sessions Lauryn aims to build a steady, respectful working relationship. She helps people name what matters to them and try small changes that fit everyday life. Conversations can include exploring feelings, practising new ways of thinking, and developing coping skills.

Lauryn welcomes people from different backgrounds and accepts international clients. To begin, readers should use the site's Start Therapy flow to match and schedule a first appointment according to availability.

How chosen approaches translate to online counselling

Lauryn draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy in her work. ACT helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that reflect their values, which can be useful for anxiety, depression and issues like addictions. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, empathy and building a trusting relationship so people feel able to speak openly about painful experiences such as trauma and intimacy-related worries.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Lauryn will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. This is a collaborative process and can change as needs evolve.

If you are considering online therapy, check the session formats available before booking because the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let people continue work when living abroad, since international clients are accepted. Ask about the practical arrangements when you schedule so the sessions match your day-to-day life.
