I’m Lauren and I am a dedicated and compassionate individual whose life journey has been profoundly shaped by my experiences and unwavering commitment to making a positive impact on the lives of others. With a background steeped in addiction recovery, life coaching, holistic therapies and a passion for promoting wellbeing, I strive to help others discover the path to recovery and a fulfilling life. I am a skilled life coach who understands the importance of personal growth and self discovery in the recovery process, my belief is to treat the individual as a whole, addressing not just the addiction itself but also the emotional, physical and spiritual aspects of recovery.
For the past four years, I have been deeply involved in the field of addiction recovery. My extensive experience in this area, coupled with my academic studies in humanistic counselling and psychotherapy, provides me with a unique and well rounded perspective on the complexities of addiction and the journey into recovery. I draw from both professional knowledge and lived experience and have an exceptional insight into the challenges faced by those seeking to break free from the shackles of active addiction.
Outside of my professional pursuits, I am an advocate for health and fitness and I actively promote the benefits of a healthy lifestyle in the broader context of addiction recovery and mental health.
I am a living testament of a transformative and diverse recovery program and I am dedicated to sharing that transformation with others.
‘There is a life beyond addiction, and I am here to help you find it.’
