Laura Brown , BACP

Laura Brown is a UK-licensed therapist with 16 years of professional experience who supports people facing stress, anxiety, eating disorders, career difficulties, and depression. She combines professional training and real-world experience to create a calm, respectful environment where each person is heard and treated with sensitivity and compassion.

As a BACP member - indicating affiliation with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - she adapts conversations and treatment plans to reflect each client's individual needs and circumstances. Her approach is collaborative and person-focused, aiming to identify practical steps and strategies that fit the client’s life and goals.

Laura recognises that starting therapy can be a courageous decision, and she acknowledges that first step with encouragement and steadiness. Her practice emphasizes tailored care, clear communication, and an empathetic stance that helps clients move toward meaningful change at a pace that suits them.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Laura Brown commonly uses client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness therapy in her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and supporting a person to find their own solutions; it can be helpful for building self-esteem and navigating life changes. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours and offers practical strategies to address anxiety, low mood, and unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and calming techniques that can reduce stress and improve coping with difficult emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Laura Brown works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - so people can choose what fits their schedule and comfort. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, attend sessions from different locations, and access support in ways that suit everyday life.
