Lauryn Harris, NCPS

Lauryn Harris is a qualified Integrative Counsellor with over three years of experience supporting people through a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges. She holds the NCPS credential, a recognised professional registration for counsellors, and combines clinical knowledge with a compassionate, person-focused style to meet each client's needs.

Her primary approach is Person-Centered Therapy, which means she works with warmth, empathy, and respect, adapting sessions to reflect the individual's goals and pace. Lauryn has particular experience in working with addictions, relationships, sexual abuse, trauma, eating disorders, and grief, and she has supported many clients facing complex and painful life experiences that affect self-image and wellbeing.

Taking the first step into therapy can feel daunting, and Lauryn approaches that moment with sensitivity and practical support. She creates a nonjudgmental, supportive space where clients can explore thoughts and feelings, develop understanding, and build resilience. Together with each client she works toward clearer insight, healthier coping, and greater self-empowerment.

Therapeutic approaches and online care with Lauryn

Lauryn draws from Client-Centered Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to tailor support to each person. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on providing an empathic, non-directive environment where clients lead the conversation and are met with respect and understanding - this approach is helpful for building self-awareness and strengthening self-esteem.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns of relating and emotional responses; it can be useful for those struggling with intimacy, abandonment fears, or recurring relational difficulties. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and supports moving toward chosen values and meaningful action even when emotions are challenging.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Lauryn works with clients to identify goals, preferences, and practical needs, and adapts methods so therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging allow clients to access care from different locations and schedules. These options can make it easier to attend regularly, integrate therapeutic work into daily life, and maintain continuity of support with a registered professional.
