More about Laura

Perhaps you've been holding everything together for everyone else while quietly feeling overwhelmed yourself. Maybe anxiety has become exhausting, relationships feel difficult, or you're beginning to wonder why life feels harder than it used to. Whatever has brought you here, you don't have to face it alone.

I offer warm, person-centred online counselling for adults across the UK. I believe that each person has the capacity for growth and healing, even when life experiences have left them feeling stuck, overwhelmed or disconnected from themselves. My counselling and therapeutic sessions seek to offer a safe, compassionate space where adults, children and young people can pause, reflect and reconnect with themselves. Through a person-centred approach, I sit alongside you, supporting your journey of restoration, helping you discover resilience, hope and lasting change.

My approach is collaborative and non-judgemental. Some sessions may involve exploring difficult emotions or past experiences, while others focus on helping you understand patterns, develop self-compassion and find practical ways forward. We work at a pace that feels right for you. I will offer suggestions of processing things through talking or creatively through mark making or movement and using metaphors.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
