Lauren Baxendale , BACP

Lauren Baxendale is a UK-based therapist with five years of professional experience who offers warm, client-centered support for people facing stress, anxiety and life transitions. She works with individuals dealing with depression, low self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, grief, trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, eating and sleeping problems, parenting challenges, career questions and compassion fatigue. Her practice also addresses intimacy-related issues, ADHD and other mood or behavioural concerns, always tailoring the work to each person’s priorities and strengths.

Holding a BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a UK professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists - she draws on client-centered therapy to create an empathetic, nonjudgmental space where people can explore their experiences. Lauren believes that each person is the expert on their own story and that their existing strengths are central to overcoming difficult moments. She supports clients in identifying goals, building insight and developing practical coping strategies so they can move toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel daunting, and Lauren offers steady, collaborative support throughout that process. She aims to help clients feel heard, understood and empowered to make meaningful changes at a pace that suits them.
