How I can support you


Every session is built around what is happening for you right now. It is not a script and it is not generic life coaching. These are the areas we most often work on together.

Co-parenting strategy

Practical, calm plans for dealing with a co-parent who makes everything harder than it needs to be.

  • Responding to messages and emails without escalating
  • Boundaries you can actually hold
  • Handovers, communication and parallel parenting approaches
  • Keeping clear, factual records of what happens

Understanding narcissistic patterns

Learning to recognise controlling and manipulative behaviour, so you can trust your own experience again.

  • Naming patterns like gaslighting, blame shifting and hot and cold behaviour
  • Understanding trauma bonds and why leaving, and staying away, is so hard
  • Rebuilding self trust after being made to doubt yourself
  • Responding to provocation without being pulled in

Trauma-informed nervous system work

Your body reacts before your mind catches up. We work with that, not against it, using The STEADY Method.

  • Spotting your own triggers and early warning signs
  • Quick regulation tools that work in real life
  • Recovering after a hard moment
  • Moving from surviving to feeling steady

Family court and Cafcass preparation

Emotional and practical preparation for one of the most stressful processes you may ever face.

  • Staying calm and credible when you are under pressure
  • Organising your thoughts and what you want to say
  • Preparing for Cafcass conversations
  • Looking after yourself between hearings

Parenting through it

Helping your children feel safe, regulated and unquestioned when they come home to you.

  • A calm re-entry routine after handovers
  • What to say when they talk about the other home
  • Supporting children of different ages
  • Regulating yourself first so they can follow

Rebuilding your life and identity

Reclaiming your sense of self and building a life that feels steady and purposeful, on your own terms.

  • Putting yourself back on the list
  • Rebuilding confidence and decision making
  • Setting goals that fit your real life
  • Working out what steady looks like for you

How it works

What working together looks like


1

Book your session

Choose a single session or a package. Sessions are one hour, held over video call and completely confidential.

2

Complete your intake form

Before we meet I send a short intake form so I understand where you are and what you need, and we don't waste time on background.

3

Leave with a plan

You leave sessions with clarity and an actual plan, not just a conversation. Over time we review your progress and adjust our focus.

Client stories

What mums say after working with me

★★★★★

Have worked with Lauren now for a few months and to say she has changed my life would be an understatement.

I remember when we had our first session and every message, email, contact meet would be full of tension, anxiety and mental stress.

Since working with Lauren she has helped me develop structure, take back control and also develop strategies that work for me when I'm overwhelmed or anxious.

The knowledge she has is second to none and I believe that is because she has lived and breathed what a lot of us women are or have been through - and it makes a massive difference.

She listens, she understands and she offers a safe space to regain what you thought you had once lost!

Alice

★★★★★

I came to Lauren completely exhausted by dealing with my high conflict ex. Every message would send me into a spiral and I felt like I had to respond immediately because I was constantly worried about what would happen next.

Lauren taught me that I didn't have to react to everything. She helped me understand my nervous system, recognise when I was triggered and, most importantly, pause before responding.

She helped me put proper boundaries in place and showed me how to communicate without getting pulled into arguments or defending myself constantly.

For the first time, I feel like I can deal with difficult situations without completely losing myself in them.

Lauren hasn't changed my ex. She's helped me change how I respond to him, and that has changed everything for me.

Cassie, 43

★★★★★

When I first started working with Lauren, I was struggling so much with the trauma from my abusive relationship. I felt overwhelmed by everything I'd been through and was finding it really difficult to move forward.

Even though I'm still working with Lauren, the difference I've already noticed in myself is huge. I'm starting to understand my reactions, make sense of what I've been through and be kinder to myself in the process.

For the first time in a long time, I feel like I'm making progress rather than just trying to get through each day. I know I still have healing to do, but I finally feel like I'm not facing it all alone.

Sarah

★★★★★

I didn't realise how much of myself I had lost until I started working with Lauren.

I was constantly putting everyone else first and trying to survive the next problem. Lauren helped me slow down, understand what was happening in my body and start putting myself back on the list.

I'm still rebuilding, but I finally feel like I'm finding myself again.
