About Laura
Laura Turba is a counsellor who works with people at their own pace. She uses a person-centred approach and aims to keep the client at the centre of each session. Laura holds BACP, which is shown as her credential, and she practises in the United Kingdom.
She has three years of experience working across different agencies. That work exposed her to a wide range of backgrounds and presenting issues. Laura has supported people through things like suicidal feelings, self-harm, sexual abuse and childhood trauma.
Background and approach
She describes using assessment tools to track progress where helpful. Laura aims to help people work through difficult life experiences. She focuses on creating a respectful space and moving at a pace the client feels ready for.
Her practice emphasises listening first and adapting sessions to each person’s needs. Practical life demands are part of her thinking. She offers flexible scheduling and invites conversations about any worries that might get in the way of ongoing therapy.
Her goal is to collaborate with clients so they can keep therapy workable around family and work commitments. Her areas of interest include stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, self-esteem, depression and addiction issues. Additional focuses include attachment and abandonment, autism and Asperger syndrome, communication difficulties, chronic illness and caregiver stress.
Laura also works with relationship and intimacy-related concerns as part of her wider practice.

How Laura works online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how emotions and patterns affect close relationships and connection. It can help people who want to change recurring emotional responses and improve how they relate to others.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs, then agree on a way forward that fits each person. That choice can change as therapy progresses and new priorities emerge.
If you are considering online therapy, check which session formats are currently offered before booking. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit around family and work. Others prefer shorter check-ins or phone conversations when screen time is difficult. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt methods like reflective listening, emotion-focused exercises and mindfulness so they work in remote appointments, helping therapy fit into everyday life.
