Lauryn Harris, NCPS

Lauryn Harris is a qualified integrative counsellor with 3 years of professional experience helping people navigate a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges. She holds NCPS, a recognised credential in counselling and psychotherapy that reflects formal training and practice in therapeutic work. Lauryn’s approach centers on the client - she brings warmth, empathy, and respect while adapting techniques to each person’s situation and goals.

Her clinical experience spans addictions, relationship and family difficulties, sexual and other trauma, eating and sleeping concerns, grief and loss, and issues related to self-esteem, intimacy, and identity. She also supports clients facing anxiety, stress, bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, and life transitions, and offers focused help for topics such as parenting, career concerns, compassion fatigue, and chronic illness. Lauryn has worked with people experiencing complex, painful life events and understands how those experiences can affect a person’s sense of self and everyday functioning.

Choosing to start therapy can feel daunting, and Lauryn aims to make that first step more approachable. She creates a nonjudgmental, supportive environment where clients can explore thoughts and feelings at their own pace. Working collaboratively, she helps clients build insight, develop practical coping strategies, and move toward greater wellbeing and personal agency.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Lauryn integrates several evidence-informed approaches to tailor therapy to each person’s needs. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then take actions aligned with their values - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and patterns that keep people from living the life they want. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationship patterns shape current connections and emotional responses, offering a way to address intimacy struggles, abandonment concerns, and relational wounds. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and collaboration, giving clients space to lead the pace and focus of sessions while the therapist reflects and supports growth.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lauryn collaborates with each client to identify which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adapting techniques over time as progress is made. This collaborative process helps ensure therapy feels relevant and practical.

Online therapy with Lauryn is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access registered professionals from wherever you are, reduce travel time, and allow therapy to be integrated into busy or changing lives.
