About Kirsten
Kirsten Lawrence offers calm, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or life changes. She writes in clear, simple terms and aims to help people make sense of difficult feelings and rebuild confidence. Kirsten creates space to talk through painful experiences without judgement and focuses on what the person needs right now.
Kirsten uses a straightforward, person-focused style that helps people spot patterns in their thinking and behaviour.
Background and approach
She pays attention to how past experiences shape present reactions and helps people try new ways of coping. Sessions are led at the client’s pace and grounded in everyday language rather than jargon. Her approach draws on client-centred work and mindfulness practice to support emotional regulation and self-awareness.
Mindfulness tools are offered in short, practical exercises that fit into daily life. The client-centred focus means the person’s goals guide each conversation. Over eight years Kirsten has supported people through trauma and abuse, relationship and family problems, parenting strain, career stress and mood concerns including bipolar symptoms.
She also works with issues such as ADHD challenges, compassion fatigue, panic and low self-esteem. Her experience includes helping people facing guilt, isolation, financial pressure and life purpose questions. Kirsten is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Sessions are conducted in English and she sees people across the United Kingdom and internationally. The style is practical, steady and collaborative, aimed at helping people feel more in control and less alone.

Approaches Kirsten lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing exercises to reduce intense reactions and increase calm. These practices are offered in short, practical ways that can be used between sessions to manage anxiety, panic or racing thoughts.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Kirsten will discuss goals and preferences with each person and adapt methods as needed. That collaborative process helps shape a plan that fits the client’s life and what they hope to achieve.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging provide flexible, shorter check-ins or ongoing written reflection. These options support continuity of care and make regular contact more achievable for many people.
