About Laura

Laura Hine is a counsellor who focuses on helping people move past stuck patterns of thought and behaviour. She works with common problems such as anxiety, depression, relationship strain and anger. Laura aims to help clients feel more able to manage everyday stresses and rebuild connections with others.

She uses an integrative approach that draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centred practice, cognitive behavioural techniques, narrative methods and psychodynamic work. That mix lets her adjust how sessions run to match what each person needs. Sessions tend to focus on understanding how past experiences shape current reactions and on finding practical, doable steps forward.

Laura has seven years of professional experience and holds BACP and NCPS credentials. She has worked in private practice and with services that support people affected by domestic and sexual abuse. She has also worked with young people who have special educational needs and emotional difficulties.

Her style is collaborative and attentive. She listens for patterns that keep problems repeating, then helps clients test different ways of responding. Clients can expect a straightforward conversation about goals, with practical techniques and space to reflect on deeper emotional themes.

Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and sessions are scheduled according to the therapist's availability.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current reactions and helps people notice patterns in close contact and anger. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience, so sessions give space for the client to lead and feel heard. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and tests practical alternatives, which can be useful for anxiety, low mood and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to agree which methods suit the issues, goals and personal preferences of the client. That plan can be adjusted as sessions progress, mixing ideas from different approaches where helpful.

The biography does not specify which session formats are used, so confirm available options before booking. Many people find online work helps fit therapy into life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins around work, or making it easier to attend while travelling. Discussing practical preferences at the first meeting helps shape session length, pacing and the balance between talking and skills practice.
