About Laura
Laura Mitchell is a counsellor who works in the United Kingdom and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has four years of professional experience and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship problems and grief. She aims to make the first steps toward therapy feel straightforward and respectful.
In sessions she builds a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what is hardest for them.
Background and approach
Conversations are practical and warm. She helps clients untangle feelings and find manageable next steps for day-to-day life. Laura uses Client-Centred Therapy to keep the focus on each person’s priorities and experience.
That approach means listening closely and responding to what matters most to the client. She also draws on ideas from the Gottman Method to help people address communication and relationship patterns when those issues arise. Her background includes work with a wide range of concerns, from mood and anxiety to trauma, ADHD and eating issues.
She also supports people dealing with bereavement, parenting pressures, career stress and major life changes. Laura can discuss attachment and communication difficulties and offers a steady space to work through them. Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video, phone, live chat or text messaging.
She uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions once matched.

How Laura's approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's perspective. The therapist listens without judgement and follows the client’s lead to help them clarify concerns and priorities. This approach is useful for anxiety, low mood and life changes because it centres on what matters most to the individual.The Gottman Method looks at how people communicate and manage conflict in close relationships. It offers practical skills for clearer communication and more effective problem solving, which can help with relationship strain and commitment issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Laura will discuss each method and decide together with the client what fits their goals, needs and preferences. That collaborative process makes sure sessions stay relevant and helpful.
Online therapy gives practical flexibility. Video calls let people read facial expressions and keep a conversation close to an in-person session. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is low or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging can suit short updates, ongoing support between sessions or when someone prefers to write rather than speak. Registered or accredited professionals can offer effective care through these formats, making it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
