Welcome to my page. If you have been stuck indoors with your partner and are now realising you have problems, please call me before calling it quits! I'm a couple’s psychotherapist whom having worked with Relate for a number of years now focuses solely on relationships. Whether your partner has had an affair, or you've realised that you no longer have a connection /intimacy, therapy can help. Maybe you're single and have been struggling to meet someone whom you can share your life with. Sometimes it's our families or friends we are struggling with. I am based near Angel Station and uses Online methods and I'm here to help.

Although most people turn to therapy due to significant turning points like loss or bereavement, betrayal , conflict or a perceived defeat, others recognise their need to begin psychotherapeutic treatment due to feeling bewildered, unable to deal with unexpected low mood or experiencing anxiety. Most notice changes in their behaviours, including more frequent arguments, increased avoidance of tasks or proximity to others, or sudden inability to control their routine and schedule. No matter how you encounter change, ego therapy offers a bespoke approach to supporting your emotional development and personal transformation.

She believes in the existential view that we can change our circumstances. Lauren is an integrative therapist who uses theory and tools from various modalities to tailor an approach best suited to the individual/couple however she mainly uses Psychosexual, Gestalt, TA and Person Centred approaches and theories in her client work.

Your relationship matters! Are you struggling with relationship, marital or family issues? Are you or your partner wanting to improve or enhance your relationship? Perhaps you’re both at a crossroads where your future as a couple seems uncertain? Maybe you’re considering separating or divorce? Are you feeling hurt, disconnected, stuck, frustrated, angry, lonely, misunderstood, overwhelmed, sad or scared? Are you struggling to communicate, manage conflicts or difficult emotions, heal from loss of trust or an infidelity , establish or maintain healthy boundaries, manage family issues or adapt to change, life events or transitions?

I am a UKCP-accredited Psychotherapist and BACP-registered Counsellor, and also have a Certificate in Couples' Counselling. I work with individuals and couples. I believe that we are all influenced by factors in the past as well as the present, and gaining an insight into patterns of thoughts, feelings and behaviours can help us to be more resilient to deal with current difficulties, improve relationships and embrace new challenges. In addition to my experience in several areas of psychotherapy, my previous background in Public Affairs in a fast-paced corporate environment, gives me an insight into challenges in the workplace.

Would you like to talk to someone impartial about your relationship difficulties, find out tips on how to communicate better with your partner? Are you looking to separate or divorce after an infidelity or a stressful few years? Maybe you've grown apart or just not sure whether you want to stay together? Perhaps your sex life is suffering and you want to improve it. Do you feel frustrated because you end up having the same kind of argument over and over and you want to understand why you feel stuck?

I am a fully qualified experienced and accredited psychotherapist working with individuals and couples (since 1992). I am currently adding to my qualifications by training as a psychosexual therapist. My aim is to build a safe and holding space for a trusting relationship to develop where you can explore and share your thoughts, feelings, behaviours and problems/difficulties. I believe that you have many of the answers you are seeking within yourself.

Since 2000, I have been helping women going through significant life changes e.g. bereavement, traumas, life-threatening disease, relationship and family issues, affairs , divorce, separation and mid-life crisis. They often experience feelings of isolation, anger, guilt, shame, insecurity, anxiety and despair. What they want from me is help them understand and be free of their pain and suffering and if possible, to lead a happy, rewarding life.

I have been counselling individuals and couples for over 15 years in Bristol, London and online. My passion lies in working with people to improve the quality of their life experience, helping people to relate better, gain confidence to have a more prosperous life, look at blocks in their lives which may be a result of unresolved childhood issues, resolving conflict in relationships, and recovery from traumatic relationships.

I am a Clinical Sexologist who provides sex and relationship therapy for individuals, couples and multiple partnered relationships. Sexology involves many facets including: Sex: desire & arousal, sexuality, sexual health, sexual function & pain, low-esteem Relationships: intimacy, conflict management, infidelity , life changes and Gender & sexual identity: LGBTQIA+, Kink, gender dysphoria.

Before clients begin therapy they are usually on the edge where they have tried to cope on their own for a sustained period, however this has no longer become effective. I can provide you with a discreet, comfortable and confidential space to support you through these challenging times which are hard to manage on your own. Discretion and a non-judgemental attitude are the key qualities I hold and what keeps my clients coming back to see me each week. I aim to provide a safe and engaging space to support my clients in moving forward. Therapy can be helpful for i) those wanting to understand the causes and the maintenance of their problems ii) thinking about where you are in your life and how you wish to move forward iii) exploring relationships iiii) managing general life stressors. On a personal note, I was born in the UK and have lived in Singapore and Hong Kong. I come from a culturally rich and diverse background which enables me to appreciate the uniqueness of each individual I see. I therefore work with people in the context and development of their own lives.

If you are struggling with intimate relationships, it feels difficult to find and keep a partner, a recent break-up is keeping you hostage or your relationships are following the same pattern, it might be crucial to find someone you can talk to instead of bottling everything up. I use a combination of psychodynamic, attachment-based and Jungian approaches to help individuals think about their relationships in a safe and non-judgemental space. We can also explore issues around sexual identity, desire, sexuality, sexual abuse, affairs and betrayal . I also work with anxiety, depression, and disordered eating patterns.

I work intergratively and collaboratively, that is to say I draw on different psychological therapies, including CBT, Narrative and Attachment ideas and techniques, depending on the challenges and stories brought into the therapy room by the client(s). I work within an overarching Systemic framework which pays special attention to supporting individuals, couples and families to find the strengths of their relationships so as to make disturbing symptoms less problematic. It is not just about problems however, Systemic therapy is  built on a bedrock of hope, focusing on resilience and resourcefulness. 

I am a fully qualified Integrative Sex therapist, Psychosexual and Relationship therapist providing therapy to individuals and couples. After completing a BSc (Hons) in Psychology, I trained at the London Diploma in Psychosexual and Relationship therapy accredited by Middlesex University in London. I am currently participating in the following clinical research programmes: George Loewenstein and Olga Salodini (in progress) – Sexual Excitement and Disgust: A Signaling Model. George Loewenstein and Olga Salodini (in progress) – What is their secret?: Maintaining sexual excitement in long-term relationships.

Troubling thoughts, feelings, emotions, & repetitive behaviors can be safely explored & understood with the help of an experienced therapist. I help people who are experiencing a broad range of issues such as low mood, anxiety, low self esteem, anger, loneliness, rejection, infidelity , dependency, stuckness, eating disorders, abusive relationships, & seeking meaning in life. I use the psychodynamic model & CBT when necessary. Apart from being a therapist, I am a Lecturer at Birkbeck Uni on the MSc in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy course.

I am Relate trained specialising in Relationship and Sex Therapy. In order to keep our relationships healthy we need to attend to them to ensure they remain respectful, trusting, sexual and happy. Because of the busyness of day to day life, we can easily disconnect from our partners without realising it leading to a lack of communication, conflict, affairs , and dissatisfaction. When married, or when children are involved, these problems become even more complex. It might even be that since the country's lockdown, you are now realising there are issues in your relationship. Now could be a good time to resolve these.
