Integrative approaches and online support for emotional change
Laura works from an integrative framework that blends evidence-based therapeutic techniques to suit individual needs. This means she adapts methods and tools in response to a client's presenting concerns, whether the priority is managing anxiety, improving self-esteem, or navigating life transitions. Such an approach helps tailor sessions to clear goals and practical coping strategies.She also offers attachment-informed work, which explores patterns in relationships and early connection that influence current emotional responses. This can be particularly helpful for people dealing with abandonment, persistent emptiness, or recurring relationship difficulties. In addition, Laura provides focused support for grief and bereavement, helping clients process loss and find ways to carry on with meaning and resilience.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative process. Laura will work together with each client to identify which techniques and priorities fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit therapy around work, family, and other commitments. For many people, these options increase accessibility and make consistent engagement with therapeutic work more achievable.
