About Laura
Laura Ferguson helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and relationship strain. She supports those facing family problems, low self-esteem, workplace worries and compassion fatigue. Laura works with people navigating trauma, intimacy issues, LGBT concerns and life changes.
She brings a calm, straightforward approach to sessions so people can talk through what matters most to them. Laura has eight years of professional experience working in independent practice, charities and custodial settings.
Background and approach
She believes people know their own stories and often already carry useful strengths. Sessions focus on noticing those strengths and using them to make small, practical changes. Her sessions are conversational and goal-focused.
She listens first, then offers tools from different approaches such as talking through thoughts and behaviours, exploring motivation, and looking at deeper patterns from past relationships. The aim is clearer thinking and better day-to-day coping. Clients can expect a warm, steady presence and practical suggestions they can try between sessions.
Laura helps people set simple, realistic steps and reviews how those steps are working. This keeps progress clear and manageable. People come for short-term support or to work through longer issues.
Laura adapts sessions to each person’s needs and pace. She works in English and practises in the United Kingdom as an NCPS Therapist - Accredited Member (MNCPS Accred).

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Laura will talk with each person about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. Together they choose techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made, so therapy stays relevant and collaborative.
Online therapy offers flexibility and makes it easier to fit sessions into busy lives. Video calls are closest to face-to-face and allow visual contact. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a client prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit short check-ins, brief reflections or people who express themselves better in writing. Registered or accredited professionals can use these formats to provide consistent, ongoing support across different needs and schedules.
