She works with people struggling with anxiety, stress, relationship and intimacy issues, and changes at work or home.

Laura holds a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and a BA (Hons) degree, and she is registered with the NCPS (National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society).
Background and approach
She has four years of professional experience and continues regular supervision and professional development to keep her practice current. Her way of working is integrative. She commonly uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, alongside person-centred and psychodynamic ideas, to match the way she works to each person.
In practical terms that means talking through thoughts and behaviours, trying small experiments, and finding clearer ways to handle difficult moments. Sessions are practical and conversational. People can expect gentle challenge as well as support, and a focus on what can be done differently between sessions.
Laura also helps clients look at how past patterns affect current choices and relationships. She offers both short-term and longer-term counselling. Clients can pick a format that fits their schedule and needs, and the approach is adjusted as goals develop over time.
How CBT and integrative counselling work online
Laura commonly uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy as a practical way to spot unhelpful thinking and test small changes in behaviour. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and actions, and helps people try experiments to reduce anxiety or improve mood.She combines CBT with person-centred and psychodynamic ideas when helpful. Person-centred work focuses on listening and building understanding, while psychodynamic ideas look at how past patterns influence current relationships and choices. Together these approaches aim to make therapy relevant to the issues a person brings in, such as relationship difficulties, stress or low self-esteem.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy itself. The counsellor will discuss goals and preferences and decide collaboratively what to try first, and she will adjust methods as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues, phone calls can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or messaging suits quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options give flexibility to fit therapy into work, family life or other commitments.
