Lauren Heath-Matossian

I imagine you’re here because you are facing something challenging and would like someone to talk to. Someone who can come alongside you at this time in your life to offer a safe, supportive and creative space where you can share and explore your anxieties, grief or despair, struggles and conflicts, loss of meaning or sense of self. You deserve to feel seen, heard and understood.

My name is Lauren and I am an psychosynthesis psychotherapeutic counsellor. Psychosynthesis is a depth therapy that can help you to identify what is calling for attention in your life, what needs to be acknowledged, expressed and understood. It can support you in discovering and reclaiming more of who you are to foster a greater sense of wellbeing, grounding, belonging, connection and self-understanding.

At the heart of the work is the quality of the relationship between you and I. I will always endeavour to provide a safe and supportive space where trust can develop between us to nurture your unfolding process. As such, I encourage having an initial consultation session where we can see how it feels to work together and I can ensure I can support your unique needs.

I work with a wide range of presenting issues from loss of meaning in life through to complex trauma. Psychosynthesis is an integrative approach which means I can draw on a range of therapeutic and creative approaches to best suit your needs.

I look forward to hearing from you soon. 

We will meet for an hour each week, at the same time, where possible. Regularity and continuity is an important part of therapy as it provides a sense of reliability, trust and containment for your process to unfold to best effect. Therefore, your regular time slot will be held for you as long as we work together. 

The initial consultation, which is a full hour long, provides us with the opportunity to see what it feels like to work together. It is also an opportunity for me to ensure I can support your unique needs. As such I will be asking some general and broad questions about your background and current wellbeing as well as the issue(s) you are bringing.
