About Laura
Laura Nelson is a counsellor and a Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She practises in the United Kingdom and brings five years of professional experience supporting people with mental health and wellbeing concerns. She helps people who are coping with stress and anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, bipolar and addiction.
She also offers support for relationship and intimacy-related worries, parenting strains, grief and bereavement, and issues linked to ADHD and neurodiversity.
Background and approach
Laura takes an integrative style in sessions. That means she draws on several well-established approaches and adapts them to what each person needs. Sessions focus on practical ways to manage difficult feelings and to make small, steady changes in day-to-day life.
Her work includes attention to body image, eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, career transitions and coping with life changes. She also supports people dealing with abandonment, attachment problems, communication struggles and blended family concerns. Clients can expect a calm, collaborative space where the counsellor listens and helps them set realistic goals.
Conversations often include mindfulness skills, practical coping strategies and ways to notice unhelpful patterns. Laura aims to help people build more helpful habits and increase their sense of control over everyday challenges. She encourages steady progress and works with each person at a pace that suits them.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and try methods that fit their needs. Decisions about techniques are made together and can change as progress is made.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls let people work face to face without travel. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be a simpler check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging offer short, flexible ways to reflect between longer sessions. These options mean people can keep continuity of care around work, family and everyday routines.
