Focus areas and approaches

Everything Laurie lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

How Laurie combines approaches with online therapy

Person-centred counselling is central to her practice; it focuses on listening, reflecting and supporting a person to find their own answers, which can help with anxiety, low mood and life changes. This approach helps clients feel heard and gradually build clearer thinking about difficult situations.

Laurie also uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical coping skills and emotional processing. These techniques can include simple strategies to manage stress and anxiety, and ways to work through grief or unhelpful patterns over time. They are chosen to suit the issue being worked on rather than as a one-size-fits-all method.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Laurie will discuss different ways of working and agree on what feels most useful. She treats the process as collaborative, adjusting methods to fit a person’s goals and preferences as sessions progress.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual contact, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or for shorter check-ins, live chat suits people who prefer typing in the moment, and text-based messaging helps maintain an ongoing dialogue between sessions. These options make it easier to arrange counselling around work, family and daily life.
