About Lauren
Lauren Percival meets people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, relationship strain or loss. She aims to make first steps feel manageable and straightforward. Lauren uses a calm, respectful style and treats people as equal partners in the work.
She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which she follows for professional practice. Lauren has three years of experience working with adults from varied backgrounds on issues such as depression, addictions, self-esteem and bipolar concerns.
Background and approach
Young adult issues are an additional focus. Lauren practises in an integrative way, bringing together several approaches to match what a person needs in the moment. Her methods often draw on person-centred principles, Gestalt ideas, transactional analysis and brief solution-focused techniques to make sessions practical and focused.
In sessions she listens closely and helps people notice patterns, try small changes and build clearer steps forward. That might include looking at thoughts and feelings, testing new ways of communicating, or setting short achievable goals. The pace is shaped by the person’s needs.
She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different routines. To begin, a short questionnaire and scheduling step help match someone to the right time and format.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Lauren often uses person-centred work that focuses on the person in front of her, giving space for concerns to be named and heard. This approach helps with anxiety, low mood and building self-esteem by encouraging reflection and felt understanding.She also uses brief solution-focused techniques which concentrate on small, practical steps and achievable goals. These methods suit people who want concrete changes in areas like stress management, sleeping, or coping with life transitions.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss options with each person, tailor methods to their goals and adjust as progress is made. That collaboration helps identify what feels most useful and realistic for day-to-day life.
Online work is offered by video, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, study and family commitments.
