About Laura

Laura Turba is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of practice experience. She holds a BACP credential, which is listed as her professional registration. Laura works in a person-centred way, meeting people where they are and moving at a pace they find comfortable.

She helps with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, self-esteem and relationship difficulties. She also supports people facing parenting strains, grief, intimacy issues, eating concerns, anger and career-related stress.

Background and approach

Laura lists additional focuses such as attachment and abandonment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, chronic illness and caregiver stress. In sessions she uses a person-centred stance alongside trauma-focused methods, emotionally-focused work and mindfulness. She also draws on solution-focused techniques to set clear, practical steps when that approach fits a person’s goals.

The emphasis is on working collaboratively to uncover what helps most in day-to-day life. Laura has experience using score-related assessments and has worked with people on self-harm prevention and recovery from sexual abuse and childhood trauma. She aims to create steady progress at the client’s chosen speed and to hold difficult material in a calm, non-judgemental way.

Her practice is flexible to account for family and work commitments. Sessions can be arranged to suit each person’s timetable, and she encourages an open conversation about any worries related to starting or maintaining therapy.

How Laura’s approaches work online

Laura blends trauma-focused therapy with a person-centred way of working. Trauma-focused work helps people name and process difficult events safely, and is often used when past harm keeps affecting day-to-day life. Client-centred therapy means sessions are shaped around the person’s pace and priorities, focusing on what feels most important right now.

She also uses emotionally-focused techniques to help people understand and shift patterns in close relationships, and mindfulness to build simple, moment-to-moment coping skills. Together these approaches can help with anxiety, grief, relationship strain and the aftermath of abuse or loss. Choosing the right mix is a joint decision made during early sessions and reviewed as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit a short break at work more easily. Live chat and messaging suit brief check-ins, ongoing reflection or when writing out thoughts helps most. These formats aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
