About Laura
Laura Calabro trained and practised in both the United Kingdom and Italy before offering online therapy. She holds registration with the Health and Care Professions Council - HCPC - and brings 14 years of direct clinical experience to her work. Laura speaks English and Italian and accepts clients internationally.
She focuses on relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. She also helps with anxiety, stress, addictions, grief, intimacy concerns, eating issues and career questions.
Background and approach
ADHD, LGBT matters and family-related concerns are also within her scope. Laura combines time-based therapies and deeper work to match what each person needs. She uses approaches that include Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing, psychodynamic work and trauma-focused strategies.
Sessions are shaped around practical goals and gradual changes rather than one-size-fits-all plans. Her style is respectful and down-to-earth. She aims to create a steady space where people can talk through painful memories, confusing feelings or stuck patterns.
Conversations and treatment plans are personalised so the work stays relevant to daily life. If someone is nervous about starting, Laura recognises that first steps are hard. She supports people at their own pace, helping them set clear, manageable next steps and develop new ways of coping that fit their routine.

Online support
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing is a trauma-focused method that helps reduce the intensity of painful memories. It aims to make distressing memories easier to talk about and to lower their impact on current thoughts and feelings.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss needs, goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try first. Plans are reviewed together and adjusted as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face dialogue and visual cues, phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited, and messaging offers shorter check-ins or ongoing written support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and travel while keeping the focus on practical, applicable work.
