Laura Edwards

Laura Edwards is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing anger, stress and anxiety. She draws on seven years of experience to support people dealing with grief, depression and relationship strain. Laura works from the idea that each person knows their life best, and she builds on existing strengths to tackle difficult problems.

Her style is down to earth and practical. Sessions focus on what matters now and on small steps that make a real difference. She listens for patterns that fuel problems such as anger or low mood, then helps people try new ways of responding.

Laura uses a mix of approaches depending on the issue. Client-Centred Therapy gives space for people to tell their story and feel heard. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and actions that keep distress going and teaches skills to change them.

She also draws on Attachment-Based ideas to understand how early relationships shape current reactions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy techniques are used when strong feelings and close relationships are central to the problem. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) skills can be introduced for emotion regulation and coping strategies.

Her BACP credential is shown as BACP, which indicates professional registration in the UK. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted. To begin, people use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current reactions and helps people understand patterns in anger and connection. It can be useful when past losses or attachment issues influence present behaviour. Client-Centred Therapy centres the person's own voice and experience, offering a listening space where people can explore feelings and decide on next steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and practising alternative responses, which can reduce stress and improve mood.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and try methods that fit a person's needs and preferences. Together they decide whether to emphasise listening, skills practice or exploring relationship patterns as the work proceeds.

The original biography does not list which online session formats are offered. Please confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a busy day, or avoiding the need to be on camera for every meeting. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt these approaches to suit different practical needs and schedules.
