Coaching for ambitious professionals at a genuine crossroads.
For people navigating serious decisions about career direction, identity, and what success actually means to them.
Most coaching helps you do things differently.
My work helps you see yourself differently.
You’ve built a career that looks like success. And you’ve started to wonder if it’s actually yours.
I’m Lauren, a life and career coach based in London, working with clients across the UK and beyond. Most people find me when something has shifted – a career that no longer fits, burnout that’s hard to shake or a quiet sense they’ve been optimising for the wrong things.
I help people get underneath the presenting problem – the patterns shaping how they make decisions, their self-worth and ability to move forwards. The goal is not just a better decision. It is the kind of self-trust that means the next crossroads is navigated differently.
“Lauren is exceptional at what she does – she is thoughtful, a great listener, tactful and really competent. I came to her at a moment of acute stress and self-doubt, while preparing for a job interview process that felt overwhelming.
I cannot overstate how much our session helped me. She took the time to ask careful questions and listened closely to both my recent experiences and longer-term concerns. She created a space for me to feel understood, while gently encouraging me to reconsider how I viewed myself and my abilities.
After just one session, I felt more confident and more grounded. It was a real turning point. I remember calling my friends afterwards and saying that, regardless of the outcome of the interview process, I had already gained so much from the session. Lauren’s advice helped me perform well and be myself in the interview, but it also gave me perspective and insights I’m going to carry with me.
I cannot recommend Orange Tree Coaching highly enough :)”

Case Studies
A client came to a single session the week before an interview. She was qualified for the role – she just couldn’t see it. The self-doubt was loud, the guilt was louder, and she’d built a convincing case for why she’d be found out.
She got the job.
Another had been out of work for months. Motivation gone, world shrunk, quietly convinced the version of herself who had a career was probably behind her.
Six sessions later she had two job offers and was showing up for her life again.
The circumstances were different. The work was the same – getting underneath the story, not just the situation.

What To Expect
01
Discovery Call
A focused 30-minute conversation about where you are, what you are working through, and whether coaching is the right next step. And if it’s not, I’ll tell you.
02
The coaching
Rigorous, personal, and precise. We work on what is actually in the way — not the version of the problem that is easiest to describe. Every session produces both insight and a clear sense of what to do with it.
03
Lasting change
The work we do together is designed to hold – under pressure, under doubt, and after the coaching has ended. The goal is not just a better decision. It is the kind of self-trust that means the next crossroads is navigated differently.
Results
After working together, my clients describe lasting changes in how they make decisions, how they see themselves, and what they’re willing to act on.
If something in your career or life is asking for a change, this is where that conversation begins.
The discovery call is a 30-minute conversation. No pressure, no performance. Just clarity about whether this is the right next step.
