About Laura
Laura Disley is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has ten years' experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief and loss, depression, addictions and a wide range of other issues that often affect young adults. Laura also supports people dealing with identity, parenting pressures, career uncertainty and ADHD-related difficulties.
Her approach is practical and person-focused. She begins by listening to what matters to the individual and what they want to change. Sessions aim to identify strengths and small steps that can reduce overwhelm and make daily life more manageable.
Laura uses client-centred listening alongside solution-focused techniques to build clearer options and goals. She brings mindfulness practices to help with intrusive thoughts and anxiety. Motivational interviewing is used when clients want support with change, for example around addictive behaviours or lifestyle shifts.
People who come to her often want help sorting out relationship patterns, working through grief, or coping with major life transitions like moving away from home or starting a new job. She also supports concerns around intimacy, body image, and communication problems.
Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. The cost varies with location and sessions operate via a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To start, clients follow the site’s matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How her therapeutic approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s concerns at the centre. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears and helps people make choices that feel right for them. This is useful for anxiety, relationship worries and when someone feels unsure about the next steps.Mindfulness Therapy teaches practical attention and breathing techniques to reduce rumination and ease stress. These tools are often used for panic, insomnia and persistent anxious thinking and can be practiced between sessions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Laura will discuss goals and preferences and try methods that suit the client. She and the client decide together whether to emphasise listening, goal-focused tasks, or mindfulness practice as therapy progresses.
