About me
Hi, I’m Lauren - a Hypnotherapist, Psychotherapist, and Coach, also trained in hypnobirthing. I offer a warm, supportive, and non-judgemental space for people to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I work with clients navigating a range of challenges, including anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and significant life changes.
My approach is rooted in empathy, respect, and understanding. I know that life can be a little messy and that we all need some help sometimes. Therapy is not only for people who think they need 'help' but also for those of you who want to become self-aware. I am dedicated to providing personalised care that honours your unique experiences and challenges.
Some issues I have worked with clients on:
- Anxiety and excessive worrying
- Stress and overwhelm
- Low self-esteem and confidence
- Overthinking and rumination
- Self-criticism and negative thought patterns
- Emotional regulation
- Fears and phobias
- Life changes and transitions
- Relationship difficulties
- Inner child work and emotional patterns
- Building self-trust and internal safety
Some specialist areas:
- Tokophobia (fear of childbirth)
- Hypnobirthing and birth preparation
- Postnatal anxiety
- Intrusive thoughts
- Fertility and trying to conceive
- Pregnancy after loss
- Adjustment to motherhood
- Maternal identity and confidence

Areas of hypnotherapy I deal with
info Information about health conditions (*)
Hypnotherapy can enhance the well-being of individuals diagnosed with serious medical conditions, but should not take the place of medical treatment and advice. If you have been diagnosed with - or suspect you may have - any of these conditions, please speak to your doctor before starting hypnotherapy.
