How do we practice
What does the initial session look like?
We strongly believe that all individuals are capable of growth and positive change. We create a supportive and non-judgemental space for clients to discuss whatever they want to. We aim to support clients to work through their feelings and struggles, whilst enabling them to remain in control. Sessions can be held over various online platforms, outside (walk and talk therapy) or in our office space in Wakefield.
Counselling sessions are between £65 for a 50 minute session.
The initial 20 minute enquiry session is free, via telephone or video call, to enable clients to decide whether or not my services are suitable for them. Once a client has decided to go ahead with counselling, the first session is used to gain an insight into what they are struggling with, and what they hope to gain from counselling. Together we also complete a client information sheet and discuss the counselling agreement in this session.

Face to face counselling
We understand that sometimes, the most effective form of support comes from a face-to-face connection. Our in-person counselling sessions provide a safe and comfortable space for individuals to explore their thoughts and emotions. Whether you're seeking help for personal growth, relationship issues, or mental health concerns, our face-to-face counselling sessions offer a compassionate and confidential environment where you can openly express yourself and work towards your goals. We believe in the power of genuine human connection, hence why I am here to help guide you on your journey towards healing and personal development.
Walk and talk counselling
Laura also offers a unique "Walk and Talk Counselling" approach as sometimes the best therapy sessions happen when you're in motion, surrounded by the beauty of the outdoors. Whether you're seeking support for personal growth, managing stress, or navigating life's challenges, my walk & talk counselling offers you a refreshing and therapeutic way to explore your feelings and find solutions. Step outside and let nature be your co-therapist on your journey towards wellness and self-discovery.
Online counselling
Finally we offer convenient and accessible online counselling sessions. We understand that life's challenges don't always adhere to traditional schedules or locations. With online counselling, you can access professional support from the comfort of your own space, at a time that suits you best. Whether you're navigating personal growth, relationship issues, or mental health concerns, online counselling sessions can provide you with a safe and confidential platform to explore your thoughts and feelings.
