People are all just trying their best, but it is very normal to struggle with life at times. I like helping people who are feeling stuck get unstuck. I like helping people see that they have the power to make something better from their life. I used to be a homebirth midwife, and I find myself drawn to people who are in big life transitions. Or knowing that there is a change needed that maybe is not yet clear. But much happiness comes from learning to truly appreciate what is real in your life today.

Opening up and acknowledging the route of our fears and anxieties, can be a very vulnerable part of us to share. However looking at this part of ourselves, sheds light upon what it is that has been holding us back and with this knowledge, we become empowered and begin to unlock their true potential.

Hi, I'm Laura. As a Children's Therapist, I am dedicated to providing a safe and supportive environment for young people to explore and express their emotions. I understand that verbalising feelings can be challenging for children, especially at a young age, which is why I utilize various techniques, such as art, play, storytelling, puppets, games and sand, to facilitate their self-expression in a child-friendly manner. This approach allows for a deeper understanding of their experiences, assists in processing difficult emotions and facilitates growth and healing.

Taking the first step into counselling can be challenging. With this always at the forefront of my mind I offer my clients a warm and empathic space to discuss their thoughts and feelings safely and confidentially.

As a therapist, I believe in the transformative power of human connections on our overall well-being. I recognise that our relationships with others serve as the cornerstone of our physical and mental health. However, I also acknowledge that many of us struggle to find genuine ease and trust in these connections due to various life experiences, and perhaps have never been able to be fully at ease with other human beings. In my practice, I see my role as that of a facilitator, providing a safe and supportive space for clients to explore their obstacles and work towards overcoming them.

I believe that each individual that comes through the doors is exactly that - an individual. Every client has their own unique needs and make up which is key in identifying in order to help facilitate recovery and growth. Life has many ups and downs for us all and at times we need help in working through some of the ups and downs. Finding the right therapist can be a valuable asset during these times and I'm a strong believer in the importance for each client in finding the "right fit" for them in order to really be able to get what they need from the therapy.

There are times when our capacity to feel better, recover or move on with things can feel too difficult to do on our own. It can help to talk to someone outside of your family, friends and familiar relationships to begin to understand how you are feeling. Therapy is a process that can help you explore issues relating to challenging or traumatic life experiences. I can support you in re-discovering a sense of how you can relate to yourself and others in a more resourceful and empowering way. Giving yourself permission to accept support for where you are at is often the hardest thing to do and the most courageous.

Hello and welcome. Are you stressed, lost, anxious? Life brings many experiences our way, some good and some bad. The emotional impact of these experiences can be frightening or confusing. Our family have a lot of influence on us, how we behave, how we talk, and how we communicate. Loss, grief, and anxiety are challenging. Processing our emotions is an essential part of living a healthy life.

I see you. I see your sense of justice, your creative energy, and connection to the world. Despite your strengths and success, you feel like you don’t belong. Have you noticed that you struggle to ask for help? Or are plagued by a deep sense that there is something wrong with you? Does this sense of not belonging, cause you to search for that in a label? You may notice that you are very hard on yourself, perhaps that's what brought you here. Our work is to heal the disconnection from self, to build resilience and develop strength from the challenges you face.
