Welcome to Serene Minds Therapy

Empowering Your Mental Well-Being

About Me...

I’m Lauren, a qualified psychotherapist with a passion for helping individuals navigate their mental health journeys. 

With a background in psychology, I have a good understanding of the complexities of the human mind and the various factors that influence our emotional well-being and behaviour. 

First and foremost, I believe that the therapeutic relationship is the most important factor in ensuring positive therapeutic outcomes. With this in mind I strive to create a safe, confidential, non-judgmental space where you can express yourself freely and explore your thoughts and feelings. Together we will work towards your goals, whether this means developing coping strategies, enhancing self-awareness, or fostering personal growth. 

 

 

 

How I work with you

Your Path to Emotional Wellness

 

As an integrative therapist, I believe in a holistic approach, recognising that each person is unique and deserves personalised care. Coming from a person-centred core, my therapeutic style is warm, empathic and collaborative. I will draw upon theories such as Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Transactional Analysis (TA) in order to explore your past and present, as well as your relationships with others.  

I have experience working in diverse therapeutic settings, both on-line and in-person assisting clients with a wide array of challenges, including generalised anxiety disorder (GAD), depression, infidelity, loneliness and issues related to divorce and separation, among others. Additionally, I have spent 3 years working in a school setting, where I support children as they navigate various life situations and transitions, such as separation anxiety, grief and loss, friendship dynamics and family related concerns. 

I am committed to ongoing professional development and staying current with the latest research in psychology and therapy. I regularly attend workshops and training sessions to enhance my skills and ensure that I provide the most effective and evidence-based practices to my clients. 

As a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), I adhere to the ethical framework outlined by the professional body and I am committed to working safely and ethically with clients.
