Hello, I'm Laura!
I'm a Therapeutic Coach with a background in person-centred counselling and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
One of the things I value most about this work is helping people to explore their experiences with greater curiosity and compassion. So many of us spend years wondering why we think, feel or react the way that we do, often believing there's something wrong with us, when in reality our struggles usually make far more sense than we realise.
That's why my approach is warm, compassionate and emotionally focused. Together, we take time to explore your thoughts, emotions, experiences and relationships, helping you to gain a clearer understanding of yourself and the challenges you're facing.
As we begin to understand what's happening beneath the surface, things often start to feel less overwhelming and more manageable.
It is from here that we can begin to build the foundations for change. A deeper understanding of yourself can help you to navigate life's challenges with greater clarity and confidence. Insight brings choice, and with that choice comes the opportunity to respond differently, make different decisions, and move forward in a way that feels more aligned with who you are.
Whilst my work is rooted in person-centred counselling, I also recognise that every person is unique. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to growth and change, so I adapt the way we work together to suit your individual needs, experiences and goals.
My own life experiences have greatly influenced both who I am and how I work. Originally from the north of England, I spent seven years living in Saudi Arabia before relocating to Dubai, where I now live with my family. Living abroad has given me first-hand experience of the opportunities, challenges and identity shifts that can come with expat life. I understand how it feels to build a life far from home.
I'm also a mother of two, so I understand something of the balancing act that many people face; trying to care for partners, children, family, careers and countless responsibilities whilst leaving little time or energy for themselves.
When clients work with me, my hope is that they experience a relationship built on trust, acceptance and genuine curiosity. I aim to offer a space where you can talk openly about what's troubling you, explore difficult emotions without fear of judgement, and begin to understand yourself and move forward with greater compassion and clarity.
If you're considering reaching out for support, I offer a free introductory call where we can talk about what brings you here, answer any questions you may have, and see whether working together feels like the right fit.
I look forward to meeting you.
"Laura has a lovely calming manner and put me at ease straight away.
It's often difficult to show others your vulnerability, but it was so beneficial for me to show this to Laura and she created a safe and supportive environment to allow me to be vulnerable.
I really appreciate all the sessions we did together and thank you so much"
