Lauren McMillan

I have a first-class honours degree in Humanistic Counselling. I am an integrative Humanistic Person-Centred counsellor. This is a gentle, non-directive, actively non-judgemental talking therapy. Working together, we will highlight the resources, assets and virtues that you possess. 

Specifically, the counselling I offer is tailored to support and empower you on your journey towards growth and fulfilment. 

I am flexible in my counselling approach. Counselling generally lasts 50 minutes but longer if the need arises. Our counselling contract will be for a minimum of 12 sessions.  I offer telephone, Zoom, walking-talking, face-to-face in therapy rooms in Brighton.  I can also come to your home. 

I have many years of experience as a bereavement counsellor. As well as working with clients experiencing grief I have worked with many client issues and concerns. I have worked with clients who have felt suicidal, anxious, depressed, traumatised and lost. I have worked with clients who have experienced psychological and physical abuse. I work with all 18+ adult clients and am LGBTQIA+ inclusive. I am very skilled in working with older clients in their later stages of life.

I am a warm empath and offer a safe and confidential space for you to explore your challenges, discover your strengths and achieve your goals.

I offer a free first session, on the telephone or over Zoom.  This is for you to meet me and to get an idea of how I work and whether you feel you can work with me.
