About Laura
Laura Edwards is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She has seven years of professional experience and works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and grief. She also helps with relationship and intimacy concerns, eating and sleeping problems, addiction and ADHD.
Laura sees clients from diverse backgrounds and accepts international clients for online work. Clients can expect a straightforward, person-focused approach. Laura believes each person knows their own story and brings strengths to the room.
Background and approach
She listens without judgement and helps people find practical steps to feel steadier day to day. Taking the first step can feel hard, and she aims to make that step clearer and more manageable. Her practice draws on approaches that focus on emotions, attachment and thinking patterns.
Therapy sessions use everyday language and aim to build useful skills as well as new ways of understanding difficult feelings. Sessions can include reflection, practical exercises and strategies to cope between meetings. Laura trained and holds registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
That registration is part of her professional background in the UK. She blends that background with a collaborative style and an aim to match methods to each person's needs. People who choose to work with her often want a calm, steady space to talk things through.
She supports practical problem solving alongside exploring emotions and relationships. Online session options make it easier to fit work around busy lives.

Approaches that translate to online therapy
Attachment-based work focuses on how early bonds shape current relationships and emotions. It helps people understand patterns in close relationships and build safer ways of connecting. Client-centred therapy prioritises the client's perspective and pace, offering empathetic listening and support to help people find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and teaches practical strategies to manage anxiety, low mood and unhelpful habits.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through options and adapt methods based on what the person wants to achieve. This collaborative process helps to match emotional exploration with practical strategies and skills training when needed.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different situations. Video suits deeper conversations, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat offers a shorter check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caring duties and travel while keeping continuity with a single therapist.
