Lauren Roberts

I currently have availability at select times on a Monday, Tuesday and Friday. I can offer some late afternoon and evening slots. I also run a concessions rate for those who are on low-income or are counselling students. Please feel free to drop me a message if you wish to discuss anything monetary to look at an individual plan, as I am passionate about trying to ensure therapeutic services are as accessible as can be. 

I'm an integrative psychotherapeutic counsellor; this means I am trained in and draw upon theories from the main psychological schools and tailor my approach to the unique individual that you are. I don’t apply a particular method to you but rather meet you where you are, and we go from there- building from our rapport our way of working together to best meet your therapeutic goals.

I take a fundamentally attachment-focused, trauma-informed approach considering any challenges and issues that may arise in every aspect of human experience and self-image.  We can explore whatever you bring, such as but not limited to trauma (either complex trauma or a particular traumatic experience), abuse (of all kinds), identity issues, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, addiction, eating disorders & loss. 

I am passionate about this work and the theories that I draw upon, my integrative framework includes elements from the three main schools (humanistic-existential, psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioural) and others; such as Gestalt, theories which work with nervous system dynamics, working somatically with the body and I am also interested in working creatively.  

I offer long-term exploratory work, depth work and more short–term focused counselling that can look at specific issues depending what your wants and goals are, and what is best for you. This is of course flexible and can be evaluated as we review our work periodically.
