About Lauryn
Lauryn Harris is a counsellor who aims to help parents and individuals manage difficult feelings and situations. She presents a calm, respectful presence and focuses on listening closely to what matters to each person. Her approachable manner makes it easier to talk about painful or awkward topics without judgement.
She uses a person-centred style, meeting people where they are and shaping sessions around their priorities. Over three years she has supported people facing addictions, trauma and abuse, eating concerns, grief, relationship problems and anxiety.
Background and approach
She also helps with stress, sleep difficulties, self-esteem, career questions and parenting worries. Sessions combine open listening with practical tools when those are useful. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy techniques are drawn on to help manage thoughts, emotions and behaviour.
Attachment-based ideas inform work around relationships and intimacy. Lauryn describes herself as warm and non-judgemental and aims to create space for people to set the pace. Her work can include short-term coping strategies or longer conversations about life patterns and values.
She accepts clients in the United Kingdom and from other countries in English. People meet with her by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Fees vary with location and the service uses a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
To begin, users complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability.

How Lauryn's approaches work online
Lauryn draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy as part of her online work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours with practical exercises and simple strategies to reduce anxiety, low mood and unhelpful habits. Attachment-based work looks at patterns in relationships and helps people understand how early bonds affect current closeness and trust.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The counsellor discusses goals and preferences with each person and adjusts methods together over time. Sessions are collaborative so techniques are chosen to fit the individual's needs rather than imposed from the start.
Online sessions take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different lifestyles. Video calls let people read facial cues and body language, phone sessions often work when bandwidth is limited, chat can suit brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy routines and different time zones.
