About Laura
Laura Andrews is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety and addiction concerns. She also supports those coping with trauma, low self-esteem, depression and relationship struggles. She speaks English and sees clients from the United Kingdom and internationally.
Her sessions are calm and non-judgemental. She encourages people to talk openly about their thoughts and feelings. The first step often feels hard, and she aims to make it easier to reach out and start work.
Background and approach
Laura draws on approaches that include client-centred work and cognitive behavioural techniques. In practice this means she listens closely, helps clients spot patterns of thinking, and tests small changes in behaviour. She also uses mindfulness exercises and brief solution-focused steps to build coping skills.
Over 12 years she has supported people with a wide range of issues from grief and intimacy worries to eating and sleep problems. She also works with concerns such as ADHD-related difficulties, attachment and abandonment issues, and substance use challenges. Her experience includes helping people manage life transitions and anger or impulse concerns.
Sessions can be delivered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Fees vary with location and the subscription-based model can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a session is scheduled according to availability.
Approaches that guide online counselling
Laura combines client-centred therapy with cognitive behavioural techniques to help people manage anxiety and stress. Client-centred work focuses on listening without judgement and helping clients find their own answers, which can be useful for building self-esteem and working through relationship or identity concerns. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thought patterns and try small behavioural experiments to reduce anxiety and improve mood.The right approach is often discovered together. Laura will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful in early sessions, then shape the work collaboratively. This helps ensure the methods chosen match practical aims such as improving sleep, reducing panic, or managing cravings and impulses.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging for flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help, phone sessions can fit into a short break or need less bandwidth, and chat or messaging can suit people who prefer writing or want brief, ongoing check-ins. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while still working with a registered or accredited professional.
