About Laura

Laura Mitchell is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP registration and brings four years of professional experience to her work. She aims to make the first step into therapy easier for people who feel overwhelmed or unsure.

She creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about difficult feelings. Sessions focus on what matters most to the person in front of her. Laura listens for the concrete problems and helps people find manageable next steps.

Background and approach

Her work covers a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief and relationship strain. She also supports people facing challenges such as ADHD, eating difficulties, anger, career decisions and coping with life changes. Trauma and abuse is one of the areas she lists as a focus.

Laura uses client-centred methods that keep the person’s experience central. She also draws on the Gottman Method when relationship patterns are part of the concern. These approaches guide how she asks questions, reflects back what she hears and helps people make changes.

Sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Practical details such as cost vary with location and use a subscription model that may be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used to pair people with a suitable schedule and therapist.

Ways of working Laura names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Laura uses client-centred therapy to keep the focus on each person’s experience. This approach involves open listening, reflecting back what is heard and helping the person set their own goals. It is useful when someone needs a steady place to sort feelings or make sense of confusing thoughts.

She also uses elements of the Gottman Method when relationship patterns are part of the concern. That method looks at how couples communicate, manage conflict and build emotional connection, and can help people notice recurring interaction styles and try new behaviours.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about their needs, goals and preferences and then suggest practices that fit. Together they will review what is helping and adapt the plan as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls work well for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat can serve as a shorter check-in and text messaging allows brief, ongoing contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work and family life and to choose the format that feels most comfortable.
