Lauren Percival , BACP

Lauren Percival is an integrative psychotherapist and a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), a UK professional body that sets ethical standards for practice. With three years of clinical experience, she has supported people from a range of ages and backgrounds through issues such as depression, anxiety, work-related stress, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, and other life challenges.

Working in an integrative way, Lauren draws on several complementary methods to suit each person she sees. Her practice commonly uses Person-Centred principles to build a respectful, empathetic therapeutic relationship, Gestalt ideas to explore present-moment experience, Transactional Analysis to understand relational patterns, and Brief Solution-Focused techniques to identify practical steps forward. This mix allows her to tailor sessions to an individualâs needs and goals while remaining focused on what helps most.

Lauren approaches therapy as a collaborative process in which the client is treated as an equal and listened to with respect and empathy. She aims to support and empower people who are ready to take steps toward a more fulfilling life, offering steady guidance as clients explore change and growth.

She welcomes inquiries from those seeking a thoughtful, integrative approach to common mental health and life concerns.

Integrative Approaches for Online Therapy

Lauren often draws on Person-Centred work, which places the clientâs experience at the centre of therapy and focuses on developing a genuine, empathetic relationship that supports self-understanding and personal growth. It can be especially helpful for people seeking a non-judgemental space to explore feelings and values.

She also uses Gestalt approaches to bring attention to present-moment experience, helping clients notice patterns in thought, emotion and bodily response so they can experiment with new ways of relating to themselves and others. Brief Solution-Focused techniques are used alongside these methods to identify practical steps and small changes that move a person toward their goals.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Lauren works collaboratively with each person to decide what fits best based on their needs, goals and preferences. She adapts methods as the work progresses so the therapy remains relevant and effective.

Online sessions by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging offer flexibility for people juggling work, study or family responsibilities. These formats make it easier to access therapy from different locations and to choose the communication style that feels most comfortable while maintaining continuity of care with a licensed professional.
