About Laura
Laura Carroll is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience and a BACP credential. She focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety, navigate addiction concerns, and work through relationship and LGBT matters. Laura aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and respectful of each person’s pace.
She believes the client is the expert in their own life and draws on people’s strengths to move through difficult moments.
Background and approach
Sessions are conversational and grounded, with the counsellor listening closely to understand what matters most to each person. The work is practical and paced to suit individual needs. Laura uses client-centred methods to create a space where people feel heard and can explore their thoughts.
She also brings psychodynamic ideas to help uncover patterns that repeat in relationships or self-image. These approaches are used to look at current worries and the life history that shapes them. Common issues she supports include grief, parenting stresses, career concerns, self-esteem struggles, and ADHD-related challenges.
She also helps people facing trauma, intimacy difficulties, or major life transitions. Conversations are aimed at making day-to-day coping easier and clearer. If someone prefers different session formats, Laura offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first appointment through the platform.
How client-centred and psychodynamic work translate online
Client-Centred Therapy places the person and their experience at the heart of each session. It means the counsellor listens closely, follows the client’s lead, and helps clarify choices and feelings. This approach suits people who want a supportive, non-directive space to talk through anxiety and daily stresses.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that repeat across relationships and over time. It involves gently exploring past experiences that shape present reactions, which can help with issues like low self-esteem, intimacy problems, and recurring anxiety. Sessions may touch on memories and how they link to current difficulties.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and adjust methods as therapy progresses. Together they decide what feels most useful, combining listening, practical strategies, and reflection as needed.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video suits longer sessions with face-to-face conversation. Phone calls use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and messaging allow shorter check-ins or ongoing written reflection between sessions. These options make therapy flexible and easier to fit around work, family, or travel.
