About Lavanniya
Lavanniya Langa is a counsellor who draws on Jungian ideas alongside other approaches to help people understand what feels stuck or painful in their lives. She works in English and Tamil and aims to create a respectful, sensitive space for people to talk about stress, anxiety, relationships and major life changes.
With 14 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom, she has supported people facing trauma and abuse, depression and grief.
Background and approach
She also helps with issues such as addiction, self-esteem, intimacy concerns and sleep or eating difficulties. Her work includes practical support for parenting, career strain and caregiver stress. Her style is collaborative and person-focused.
She listens for patterns in feelings and behaviour and uses that insight to shape sessions. Techniques come from several approaches, and she adapts the way she works to each person’s situation. Lavanniya explains options and invites people to take part in planning their sessions.
She aims to balance talking through emotions with practical steps to cope between meetings. Sessions may explore attachment and relationship dynamics as well as thinking patterns that keep problems going. People can expect clear, down-to-earth conversation and gentle challenge when needed.
She understands how upsetting change can be and works with clients to build small, manageable ways to move forward.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Jungian Therapy looks at symbols, personal stories and recurring themes to help people discover deeper meaning and sources of distress. It can be useful when someone wants to understand long-standing patterns in relationships or identity. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds shape current relationship responses and helps people work on trust, closeness and communication problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit. That process is collaborative - plans can be adjusted as therapy progresses to match what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is useful when non-verbal cues matter, while phone calls can be better when lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat or messaging can suit brief check-ins, daily tracking or people who prefer writing. These options help fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping continuity over time.
