Hi, I'm Laura, a Therapist for Mums & mother of three. I’m on a mission to empower mothers and remind them how important it is to nurture and care for themselves as well as their children. Focussing on mental health and wellbeing, I support mums and mums-to-be on their journey to and through motherhood. Whether it’s your first time or your fifth, bringing a baby into the world is a huge transition. Yes, it’s precious and beautiful, but it can be overwhelming and utterly soul-destroying at times. Wherever you are on your journey, and whatever you’re dealing with, I’m here to guide you through these feelings and out the other side.

Do you often feel overwhelmed? Are you responding anxiously to the world but can’t find a starting point to get a handle on it? I would love to help. Together we can create a space where we can hold the complexity of your experience. I can help you develop the skills and awareness to find the difficult choices and conflicts and start to tackle them. I enjoy working with a neurodiverse clientele and am particularly interested in the intersections in our experience. Where life stages - maybe new parenthood, menopause or retirement - coincide with questions around neurodiversity or a changing understanding of traumas we have faced.

I am an integrative therapist working with both short term and open ended therapy. I can provide you with a compassionate and safe space to explore your situation in a supportive and confidential environment free from judgement. I will help to guide you to solutions, new ways of thinking or just facilitate somewhere to explore your thoughts and feelings. I work integratively which means I adapt to work collaboratively with each of my clients based on individual needs and will draw on models of psychodynamic, CBT grounded in person centred.

Hello, I work with a range of issues, including anxiety and depression. Being heard and accepted for being who you truly are, can feel incredibly empowering. When this is taken away, our thoughts can trigger unhelpful behaviours, increasing low mood. Which in turn can play havoc with our emotions. When we feel lonely and isolated, overwhelming feelings can flood our thoughts and fears. I can offer you a safe, warm, and confidential space to explore any issues that may contribute towards your anxiety and depression. I am here to listen to you in an non-judgemental way, and to support you with any changes you wish to make.
