About Laura
Counsellor (BACP, NCPS), 5 years’ experience. Laura Bourne helps people facing anxiety, stress, depression, trauma and relationship or intimacy concerns. She also supports issues such as low self-esteem, grief, sleep problems, anger and coping with life changes. Sessions are conducted in English and she practises in the United Kingdom.
Laura frames her work around Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) while drawing on other methods. She uses Attachment-Based, Psychodynamic and Solution-Focused ideas to shape sessions. That mix lets her respond to how someone’s history, patterns and current problems interact rather than using one fixed method.
In practice she keeps sessions focused and practical. Conversations identify patterns that keep problems going and test small changes to see what helps. For people affected by trauma, she brings a trauma-informed awareness so steady pacing and grounding are part of the work.
Her style is person-centred and collaborative. Clients set goals and the counsellor tracks progress with short-term steps as well as longer reflection on deeper issues when useful. This approach fits common concerns like relationship problems, grief, ADHD-related struggles and anger management.
Laura’s background includes five years of clinical work and registration with BACP and NCPS. The BACP listing is shown as a professional credential and NCPS appears as supplied. Prospective clients in the UK should confirm current session formats before booking.

How her approaches translate to remote work
Laura uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and test practical behaviour changes. CBT sessions tend to focus on goals, homework and measurable steps that suit common problems like anxiety, low mood and sleep difficulties.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at relationship patterns and how early bonds shape current reactions. That work helps with intimacy-related issues, abandonment concerns and difficulties that repeat across relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person’s needs and preferences, and can move between short-term solution-focused work and deeper psychodynamic reflection as required.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as they are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, childcare and travel. They can also allow shorter check-ins or telephone sessions when video is difficult, helping clients maintain continuity of care and keep momentum between appointments.
