More about Laura

  • 5 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I am based in County Durham UK, I have over 5 years of professional work experience and hold a Bachelors Degree in Counselling, as well as many various continued professional development certificates. My approach is always person-centred based but as an integrative therapist I use many different skills and tools depending on the needs of my clients.

I have experience in helping clients with many different mental health issues, including stress, anxiety, and panic disorders and I have done extensive work with neurodivergent clients (ASD, AS, ADHD). I believe that you are the expert on your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming the things that challenge you. Taking the first step to signing up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
