About Laura
Laura Mitchell is a counsellor who trained and practises in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP registration, and she has around four years of professional experience supporting people through hard times. Laura focuses on things like stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship strain and grief, and she aims to make the first step into therapy easier to take.
She creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can say what they are carrying. Sessions are structured to let clients talk at their own pace while also working on practical ways to manage overwhelm. Laura emphasises listening first, then gently helping people identify small changes they can try between meetings.
Her background includes helping people with depression, ADHD, parenting pressures and major life changes. She also works with issues such as attachment difficulties, communication problems, codependency and separation. This range means she draws on different ways of supporting a person as their needs change.
Laura uses client-centred approaches that prioritise the person’s own goals. She also draws on the Gottman Method where relationship dynamics and communication are a focus. In practice this means sessions can include guided conversations about patterns, clearer ways to express needs, and steps to reduce conflict.
Starting therapy with her involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session once a suitable time is found. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time, and fees vary with location and availability. She offers therapy in English and does not take international clients.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the heart of each session. It focuses on listening, understanding and reflecting back what matters to the client so they can decide the next steps. This approach is useful for people feeling overwhelmed, anxious or unsure where to begin.The Gottman Method looks at relationship patterns and communication. It helps people learn clearer ways to talk about needs, manage conflict and build healthier routines together. This method is often used when the main concern relates to interactions and recurring arguments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Laura will talk with each person about their concerns, goals and preferences and then suggest which method or combination might fit best. Decisions are made together so the plan can be adjusted as progress is reviewed.
For practical session details, please confirm the current formats before booking as the original biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make appointments easier to fit into busy days, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people choose quieter surroundings or avoid video when that feels better, depending on what suits their daily routine.
