Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
Lauren Stone, at Our Mindful Counsellor offers a warm, confident, compassionate, safe space to discuss your concerns and difficulties. I’m an Integrative counsellor and registered with the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and work to deliver effective interventions to adults who are experiencing a range of difficulties.
The aim of the following therapies is to enable people to process difficult events that are preventing them from reaching their full potential and to bring an understanding and compassion for themselves.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) seeks out your thinking patterns and provides skills to relieve symptoms before connecting with how your beliefs started. CBT brings an understanding to emotions, feelings, thinking patterns and how they impact our behaviour. The techniques’ used in this therapy focus on your thinking patterns and how we can use these discoveries to improve your well-being.
Person-Centred Therapy supports you to explore your beliefs, feelings and current difficulty making you more aware of why feelings and behaviours are happening. The underlining value of this therapy is for Our Mindful Counsellor to accept who you are, being honest with you while looking at the world from your perspective. This encourages bringing your difficulties to the sessions giving you more independence and not being directed by Our Mindful Counsellor.
Psychodynamic Therapy is about supporting and encouraging you to find the cause for reoccurring patterns of thinking and behaviour that you may not be aware of happening that keeps you feeling stuck from past events. Transference is also discussed in sessions; this happens when redirected feelings from significant life events are reflected towards Our Mindful Counsellor. These moments bring understanding of the difficulties you face that originate from these thinking patterns enabling us to discuss why and how they impact your relationships today.
I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, coping with grief and loss, & depression. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage.

Lauren Stone at Our Mindful Counsellor offers a warm, confident and compassionate space for adults to discuss their concerns and difficulties. She is an integrative counsellor registered with the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP), brings ten years of experience to her practice, and is a female, older, non-religious, liberal therapist.
The therapeutic approaches used aim to help people process difficult events that are preventing them from reaching their full potential and to foster greater understanding and compassion for themselves.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) works by identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and teaching practical skills to reduce symptoms before exploring how underlying beliefs developed. CBT can clarify the links between emotions, thoughts and behaviour and uses targeted techniques to support improved well-being.
Person-Centred Therapy encourages exploration of beliefs, feelings and present difficulties, increasing awareness of why certain emotions and behaviours occur. The approach rests on acceptance and honest engagement from the counsellor, who seeks to see the world from the client’s perspective. This encourages clients to bring their difficulties into sessions and to build independence rather than being directed by the counsellor.
Psychodynamic Therapy aims to identify the roots of recurring patterns of thought and behaviour that may be connected to past events. Sessions may include discussion of transference, where feelings from significant life experiences are redirected toward the counsellor. These moments can reveal how past patterns affect current relationships and enable exploration of their present impact.
Lauren has experience supporting people with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and depression. She believes that clients are the experts of their own stories and that their existing strengths can help them work through challenges. Taking the first step to begin therapy is recognised as an act of courage.
Many people question whether remote therapy can really help. For a range of common concerns – including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges and navigating life changes – online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
One major advantage is flexibility. People can connect in the way that feels most comfortable to them – by video call, phone, live chat or in-app messaging – which makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
Therapists providing online care are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to switch to a different therapist at any time if they would prefer a different fit.
