Therapeutic approaches and online support
Laura Edwards draws on evidence-informed approaches to guide her work with clients. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of relating - it helps people explore attachment needs and improve emotional connection in relationships. Client-Centered Therapy emphasises a respectful, non-directive stance where the therapist listens deeply and supports clients in finding their own solutions; it is especially useful for building self-esteem and agency. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns and developing practical strategies to manage symptoms such as anxiety or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Laura collaborates with each client to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques and pacing to suit individual circumstances so the work feels relevant and manageable.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - making it easier to fit sessions into busy lives and to access support across distances. Registered professionals can provide the same focused therapeutic support remotely, allowing clients to engage from home or another convenient setting while working toward their goals.
