About me
Feeling misunderstood, brushed aside, or as though there is something “wrong” with you? I’m Laura, and I specialise in working with neurodivergent women aged 16+, whether diagnosed, self-identified, or simply wondering if this fits for you. I work online with clients across the UK.
I offer a judgement-free, collaborative space for women who have often felt labelled as “dramatic” or “too sensitive”; and those who just want to finally feel heard, understood, and accepted.
My therapeutic style is integrative, meaning I tailor therapy to your individual needs and goals, rather than taking a 'one size fits all' approach.
I acknowledge the impact our menstrual cycles have on our mental health and have an expanding awareness of common reproductive disorders such as PCOS, endometriosis & hypothalamic amenorrhea. Having dealt with reproductive health issues myself, I am very passionate about helping those struggling with this.
Training, qualifications & experience
My therapeutic style is integrative, meaning I don’t have a “one size fits all” approach. I combine different therapeutic methods to treat your individual needs. Some of these include psychodynamic therapy, relational, humanistic, somatic therapy, and gestalt. I work creatively & holistically, meaning I am open to exploring a variety of methods with my clients, such as imagery work, cards, drawing etc.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Further information
If you are interested in working with me, I offer a 15 minute intro call at no cost. This is not a therapy session, but an informal chat for you to ask any questions you may have, talk through your worries and/or expectations of therapy, and make sure I'm the right therapist for you.
If you have any questions or would like to know more, please feel free to get in touch. I will respond as soon as I can.
