About Laura
Laura Andrews helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those facing relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, sleeping or eating difficulties, parenting strain, anger and major life changes. Laura is named up front so readers know who they are reading about.
She keeps sessions straightforward and down to earth. Conversations are relaxed and non-judgemental. The aim is to make it easier to talk about difficult feelings and to find practical steps forward that fit everyday life.
Background and approach
Laura uses a mix of approaches to suit each person. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy helps when unhelpful thinking and patterns are getting in the way. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on what matters most to the client and follows their pace.
Mindfulness and Motivational Interviewing are also part of how she works with people who want to change habits or manage distress. She has 12 years of experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That is shown as BACP on her profile and indicates professional registration with that body.
Sessions are aimed at helping people notice what is getting in the way and try new ways of coping. Laura will work with each person to set small, realistic goals and review progress at every step. If someone wants to begin, the site process matches people to a therapist, then schedules sessions according to availability.
This helps people move from thinking about change to starting it.

How Laura works online
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Laura will work alongside each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences, checking in and adapting the plan as progress is made. The emphasis is on what helps the individual feel better and on achievable steps rather than one fixed method.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful because they can fit appointments more easily into a workday, avoid travel time and choose a quieter moment to focus. Others use online meetings to keep momentum between in-person sessions or to try a brief check-in when a full session would be hard to schedule. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly offer such practical benefits, and Laura will discuss what works best for each person during the initial matching and scheduling process.
