Dr. Laura Stoops , BACP, NCPS

Dr. Laura Stoops is a UK-qualified integrative counsellor who combines several therapeutic approaches to tailor support to each person's needs. She most often uses Person-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Psychodynamic Therapy, integrating elements from these methods to create a flexible, client-focused way of working.

She is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), a professional body that promotes ethical practice, and she also holds the NCPS credential as an additional professional qualification. These memberships reflect her commitment to professional standards and ongoing development.

Stoops recognises that beginning therapy can feel difficult when people are meeting for the first time. She aims to offer a non-judgemental, supportive atmosphere and to listen carefully to each person’s experience so that the work is framed from their perspective.

She has supported people with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, health or ageing concerns, carer responsibilities, questions about future goals, and the development of greater self-awareness. When working together she seeks to understand what matters most to the individual and to collaborate on practical, personalised steps toward change.

She looks forward to speaking with prospective clients.

Could Online Therapy Be a Good Fit for You?

Many people wonder whether remote therapy can make a real difference. For a range of common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and navigating life changes - online therapy can offer outcomes comparable to traditional in-person sessions.

One of the main benefits is flexibility. People can choose the way of communicating that suits them best - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which can make it easier to fit therapeutic support into a busy life.

Therapists who offer online work are licensed professionals, and you have the option to change providers if you feel another fit would be better. For many, remote therapy provides a practical, effective route to consistent support.
