Background and approach

This means a session might include reflective discussion, problem-solving steps, or grounding and breathing exercises. Laine has worked in independent practice and in secondary schools since graduating. That has given her experience with a broad range of concerns, including relationship strain, parenting pressures, trauma and abuse, grief, difficulties with sleep and eating, low self-esteem, anger, and coping with life changes.

Her style is straightforward and down-to-earth. She aims to create a trustworthy space where people can talk through painful or confusing experiences without feeling judged. Sessions are shaped around the client’s pace and priorities.

Laine explains her approach simply and helps people try methods that fit their daily life. She encourages small, steady steps and looks for realistic ways to reduce anxiety and manage reactions. Practical options are discussed alongside deeper relational work.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Laine commonly uses cognitive behavioural therapy and client-centred methods in her online work. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing different behaviours to reduce anxiety and mood difficulties. Client-centred therapy prioritises the person’s own goals, offering empathic listening and gentle reflection to help people find their own solutions.

She treats the choice of method as a collaborative process. The therapist and client discuss goals, try approaches, and adjust what they do together until it feels helpful. This way the plan evolves from the client’s needs and preferences rather than being imposed.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when seeing expressions matters. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a quieter voice-only check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins, step-by-step planning, or people who prefer writing over speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, school or family routines and can help people access support across the United Kingdom.
