About Laura
Laura Saggers offers calm, straightforward support for people feeling stuck or overwhelmed. She creates a warm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk through relationship stress, parenting strains, work pressures and big life changes. Laura uses clear, practical ways to help people understand and manage anxiety, low mood, anger and past hurt.
Laura holds a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and a BA (Hons) degree, and she also has a Postgraduate Certificate in Education.
Background and approach
The biography lists NCPS as a credential, which stands for the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society. She has four years of counselling experience and keeps her skills current through supervision and continuing professional development. Her approach is integrative, drawing on several ways of working rather than one fixed method.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is part of that mix and is used when it fits the concern. Other influences cited include person-centred listening, psychodynamic ideas and transactional analysis, adjusted to each person’s needs. Sessions have been offered by telephone and video according to the original biography, and clients outside the UK can be seen.
Costs are handled through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and fees vary with location and therapist availability. People interested in starting are asked to use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire. From there they can schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability.

How Laura works online
Her wider integrative approach means she draws on person-centred listening and psychodynamic ideas alongside CBT. Person-centred listening focuses on understanding your experience and helping you feel heard. Psychodynamic ideas can help make sense of repeating patterns that cause distress. These approaches are applied together depending on the issue and what the client prefers.
Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be decided collaboratively. The therapist will work with the client to agree goals and try methods that suit their needs and preferences. Progress is reviewed and the plan adjusted over time.
The original biography notes sessions have been offered by telephone and video, but please confirm which formats are currently available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow quicker check-ins when needed. It also gives options for quieter or lower-bandwidth sessions if that helps.
