Lauren Bourne
Calm, attachment-focused therapy online
About Lauren
Lauren Bourne is a counsellor and psychotherapist registered with the British Association of Counselling Psychotherapy (BACP). She has three years of clinical experience offering online therapy to adults across the United Kingdom and internationally. Lauren creates a calm, attentive space where people can slow down and think through what matters most to them.
She uses a person-centred and attachment-informed way of working. Sessions focus on understanding how early relationships shape current feelings and patterns.
Background and approach
Conversations aim to help people make sense of anxiety, low mood, grief, difficult relationships and a general sense that something is not right. Lauren supports people who struggle with trust, feel overwhelmed by closeness, or fear abandonment. She also helps those coping with emotional neglect, past abuse, repeated relationship patterns, and challenges with self-worth or control.
Therapy sessions help clients identify triggers, set clearer boundaries, and build more reliable ways of relating to others. The work often involves noticing repeated reactions, exploring needs, and trying small changes outside sessions to test new ways of being. Practical online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging.
Lauren describes her role as holding a steady, non-judgemental space rather than giving advice, and she works at the client’s pace to restore calm and clarity.

How attachment-informed therapy works online
Lauren draws on person-centred work and attachment-informed ideas to help people understand how early relationships affect their current feelings and patterns. Person-centred therapy focuses on a warm, non-judgemental listening stance and helps people clarify their own priorities and choices. Attachment-informed work looks at repeated relationship patterns and supports people to build more trusting ways of relating.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Lauren will discuss different ways of working with each client and decide together what fits best based on needs, goals and personal preferences. That collaborative conversation can change as the work unfolds.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let the therapist and client meet face-to-face when that helps connection. Phone sessions can be quieter and need less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, ongoing reflection between sessions, or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments, while keeping the focus on steady, accessible support from a registered professional.
