About me and my therapy practice
I’m Laura, an integrative counsellor working online with adults across London, and beyond. I’m a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
All of us experience times of difficulty when we feel sad, anxious or low. This may make us feel overwhelmed, or stuck in life. Sometimes lost and directionless. Often we experience difficulties in our relationships and may feel we struggle to relate to those closest to us. Many of us have a constant feeling of not being quite good enough, or having low self esteem or a weak sense of self. We often need a bit of extra support to uncover our strength and resilience again.
Seeking a counsellor at this time can help to process these emotions, be kinder to ourselves and develop more understanding of those around us which can help us to feel calmer. My counselling sessions are based around making you feel heard and accepted. I want you to experience a safe space within which to explore your thoughts, feelings and fears and help process deeper emotions. I offer a welcoming space where we can work together, develop trust and create a place for you to grow.
Practice description
We will work together to understand your preferences and uniqueness, and this informs the theory and tools we might use to help you. Training and working as an integrative counsellor means I use Person-Centred, Psychodynamic and Cognitive Behavioural Theory (CBT) in my work with clients. This allows me to individualise my approach according to each person’s needs and allows us the flexibility to change, try new approaches and adapt with your needs. My solution focused mindset can help you to identify your strengths, develop your resilience and strengthen self belief, whilst we work with your presenting issues.
My first session
I offer an initial free 15 minute phone call/zoom to discuss your needs and for you to find out more about me and how I work. This helps you to decide if it sounds right for you and whether we want to begin to work together.
