Welcome to My Counselling Page
Hello, I'm Laura, a relational therapist with a passion for helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges.
Specialisations:
Children's Play Therapy & Talking Therapy (Ages 8+): I have extensive experience working with children and teenagers, guiding them through various emotional and behavioural struggles.
Couples Therapy: My couples sessions offer a safe space for both partners to work together through relationship challenges, improving communication, understanding, and connection.
Individual Therapy: Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, low self-worth, or past trauma, I provide a supportive environment to help you explore and address these issues. I also specialise in inner child work and childhood trauma recovery.
Intimate Partner Violence Support: I offer compassionate support for those affected by intimate partner violence, helping you heal and reclaim your sense of self.
Therapy Options:

Neurodiversity Support (Note: I do not diagnose, but I offer support for children and adults with neurodivergence).
As an Integrative Counsellor, I draw from various therapeutic approaches, tailoring my methods to meet the specific needs of each individual, couple, or family.
My Approach: I help you better understand the relationships you have with yourself and others and how these shape your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. Through this exploration, we work together to uncover the impact of your past and present relationships on your current experiences.
If you have any questions or would like to book a session, please get in touch. I look forward to supporting you on your journey toward healing and growth.

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.
