Lauren Fothergill

I currently work Saturday - Tuesday 

Hi I'm Lauren, founder of Roots Counselling where I specialise in Person Centred Therapy. Having my own experiences of the difficulties that life can throw at us I decided to train as a counsellor so that I can help other people through their own difficult times.

I'm passionate about helping my clients to find the strength and self-acceptance they need to be able to grow and change their lives. Whatever it is that you are going through I am here to listen without judgement and be beside you as you find your way through. 

There isn't a one size fits all solution when you're struggling or dealing with difficult things and so I offer an environment that is open and friendly so that we can get the most out of our time together. Sessions are tailored to you and your needs, this ensures that we work at your speed in a way that suits you. It may be that you need someone to offload to or that there are long running themes in your life that you want to understand and work through. I respect that everybody is different and help my clients to be open so that I can learn about you as a person and we can work together to explore how you became who you are today and who you want to be.

I currently offer telephone and online sessions. Feel free to request a free 15 minute introductory call where we can learn a little about each other. This is to help you decide if I am the right counsellor for you; after that your first full session is £25 and then sessions are £45 after that.

As a counsellor I work to provide a comfortable and open environment for my clients where you can work through things that are having an effect in your life. This might be current or historical family issues, marriage or relationship problems, work, stress anxiety and depression or all of the above plus more.

Only you truly know what you feel but you may need a little bit of help from me to access this and to discover what you want and what can help you to start to feel yourself again. 

I offer the first session at a discounted price of £25 as this can help you start to understand what counselling can do for you and whether we are a good fit for each other.
