About me and my therapy practice
Life throws challenging situations at all of us, and we all deserve a listening ear and support.
I'm Lauren Smith, and I'm here to be that listening ear and provide support tailored just for you.
My own life journey has had its share of twists and turns, and these experiences have shaped me into the counsellor I am today. I understand the complexities of life, from the ups and downs of fertility, motherhood, and the pursuit of genuine self-care.
In our sessions, you'll find more than a therapist; you'll find a fellow traveller on this winding road of life. I create a welcoming space for you to be your authentic self and share at your own pace. You're not alone in your journey; I'm right here with you.
Together, we'll create a safe environment where you can express even the most uncomfortable thoughts and emotions. I'll share with you my own experiences of embracing discomfort and growth, allowing you to feel more at ease in sharing your own challenges. We'll work together to facilitate a harmonious inner dialogue and give voice to those parts of yourself that may have long been silent or unheard.
I believe that personal connection and trust are at the core of effective therapy, and my goal is to build that connection with you. So, if you're looking for someone who understands, someone who's been there, and someone who genuinely cares, I'm here for you. Let's navigate this journey together.
