About me

I am Dr Laura Thomson and I work with people experiencing a wide range of difficulties and mental health problems. I offer a professional, experienced and effective therapeutic approach and will work collaboratively with you and your goals for change. I have a caring and approachable style and together we can work through the issues that have led you to seek support.

Laura is an HCPC Registered Counselling Psychologist with twenty five years experience in adult and chid and adolescent mental health. Laura is trained in psychodynamic, humanistic and CBT approaches, a relational approach underpins her work.

Taking the first steps to making the changes you require can be difficult. I offer a free fifteen minute consultation to help you decide what you would like to change and whether you have found the right fit to embark on the therapeutic work.
