About Laura
Laura Andrews is a counsellor registered with the BACP with 12 years of professional experience. She works mainly with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression, and also supports people with relationship and family concerns.
She helps people talk through difficult feelings and practical problems. Sessions focus on what matters most right now. She uses clear, everyday language and practical techniques drawn from several approaches, including cognitive behavioural tools and mindfulness exercises.
Laura aims to make sessions a place where clients can be honest about setbacks and progress. She listens for patterns such as attachment, avoidance or impulsive reactions and brings these into the conversation. Together with the client she explores options and steps that fit daily life.
Her work also addresses issues around grief, intimacy, eating and sleeping, parenting pressures, ADHD and related focus difficulties. She pays attention to how shame, guilt or control issues affect choices and behaviour. Motivational interviewing features when people want help with changing addictive patterns.
People who choose her can expect a straightforward, problem-solving approach alongside space to reflect on meaning and values. Sessions balance short-term goals and longer-term understanding. To begin, clients are invited to use the site process to match and schedule a first appointment.

How her therapeutic approaches work in online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding a person’s experience without judgement and helps people feel heard while they think through choices. It is useful for building trust and exploring difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, low mood and stress. Motivational Interviewing concentrates on a person’s own reasons for change and supports commitment to steps that reduce addictive or risky behaviours.Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques in sessions and adjust the plan based on what the client finds helpful. This is a collaborative process where methods are chosen to fit the person’s situation and preferences.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and travel, and they can support shorter check-ins or longer therapy meetings as needed. Registered or accredited professionals can use a mix of conversation, short exercises and between-session tasks so therapy can be integrated into everyday life.
