Laurie Deuters

I have availability within my practice and am flexible with my hours. Online session only at the moment.

I have spent 5 years working in the NHS for MIND Talking Therapies in East London, where I worked with clients from 18 to 80 years of age, from a panoply of cultural, racial and religious backgrounds, who sought help with a wide variety of issues, such as depression, anxiety, grief and bereavement, interpersonal problems/relationships, trauma and many other common issues that we all face in our lives. 

My way of working is by using the integrative model in which I was trained. The integrative model is an approach that adopts techniques and ideas from different therapeutic orientations, to best suit the needs of the client. I try to tailor the therapy to the needs of each individual, and this approach enables me plenty of flexibility to find the most effective way to help my clients.

​My style of working is empathic, open and straightforward. I endeavour to offer you a space that feels warm, welcoming and most importantly, safe. 

​Above all though, the most important part of therapy is the therapeutic relationship; it is the core around which we build on our work together.

It is something that I take great care of and put a lot of emphasis on, as it is essential for our work to bear fruit. I will often attend to this and discuss with you how you are feeling about our relationship and the work we are doing.

Now whilst this is a unique relationship, as the focus, understandably, is primarily on you, we work together as a team. 

Think of me as a guide, someone who will be by your side, walking every step of the way with you through whatever issue or difficulty it is that brought you to me.
