‘Lauren is a dedicated and hardworking professional, who has supported the school community with her knowledge and expertise. Lauren supported the school with a child who was displaying challenging behaviours. She worked with the pupil and it was clear to see the impact her calm demeanor has on a pupil in crisis. Lauren talked through various strategies that we could use. Her non- judgmental kindness allowed all staff to feel comfortable to open up to her. Lauren also volunteered her time to support in our ARP for children with Autism. Lauren’s cheery disposition is infectious and all the staff really enjoyed working alongside her.’

'Lauren holds every young person she works with front and centre, ensuring their behaviours are heard, acknowledged, and understood in the most supportive, non-judgemental, and compassionate way. This successful approach in turn supports families to do the same and Lauren is there every step of the way to guide and support. The key thing about Lauren is that she is personable, unphased and exceptionally understanding, having worked with many young people, their families and wider support networks, including external agencies over many years.'

'Lauren's expertise, wisdom and calming presence has been incredibly helpful for us as a family. She has supported us to work with our daughter to give us confidence and hope to make some changes. Our daughter has complex special needs and behavioural challenges which Lauren wasn't phased by and was able to know instantly what would help us, engaging with her beautifully too. We've accessed all different kinds of support, but Lauren has been the only one who has given us precise actionable ways forward right from the get go. Things that have actually made a real difference and finally give us hope for the future. Thank you!'

Working with Lauren has been nothing short of life-changing for our family. She combines deep expertise with extraordinary compassion, helping us to truly understand the needs behind our daughter’s behaviours rather than simply reacting to them. Her observations were insightful, her strategies were practical and empowering, and her whole approach was grounded in care, clarity, and calm. Lauren not only gave us tools—we now feel more confident, connected, and able to support our daughter through her toughest moments with love and consistency.
What really sets Lauren apart is her ability to see the child behind the behaviour and to translate complex challenges into manageable, meaningful action. She respected our daughter’s emotional world while offering realistic, thoughtful advice tailored to our family dynamic. Her support has strengthened our relationship with our daughter and brought a sense of hope and direction that we hadn't felt in a long time. We cannot recommend her highly enough.
